    My weight goes up a few days before mine starts and goes down after it's done, so about a week altogether.

    Not sure, but when my wife is on her period, I always tell her that she looks fat

    What a charmer!

    For me, I always lose 2-3lbs that week and can feel the inches lost in my stomach. As soon as it've over, my lbs are back and my normal bloat reappears! WIERD!!

    Mine goes up 5lbs. Usually gone in a couple of days due to water retention.

    When I'm on my period my weight can go up as much as 5lbs! I try not to weigh myself that week but I am in a weight loss challenge at work so I have to weigh. I just chalk it up to water retention and I try not to get discouraged. So far my weight has evened out once I am back on track and off my period.

    I wouldn't worry about it too much. It's one of the joys of being a woman! :wink:

    **just spit out my drink all over my desk** No one was looking, right???

    I'm so b****y around that time, if I got on the scale I'd probably take someone out with it afterward. I try not to take people out.

    I have never compared but I bet it does since I feel bloated from retained water weight.
