So I got on the scale this morning to find that I've lost a pound virtually overnight. This is my week (grumble, grumble) and I'm about halfway through. Last month and this month both, I found that I gain weight the week before my period and then it drops off and then some the week of - it's so wierd! It's almost enough to make me look forward to that time of the month :laugh: . Does anyone else experience this or is it just me and my wierd body??? :noway:

    possibly water weight?

    this happened to me years ago before and during "that time"....my dr told me I was retaining water.

    Just a guess though!

    That happens to me too. I gain a few pounds right before, and then in the middle of my cycle, I lose it, and sometimes a few more.
