I have been in the maintenance period for months now. Suddenly for no apparent reason, I gained 7 pounds within a couple of days. It is not the appropriate time in the month for me to gain a bunch of water weight. Has this happened to anyone else? I'm at a loss...

    I've had that happen and it went away in a couple of days. Even if it's not your TOM, it's probably water weight. Things like sodium and temperature can cause you to bloat. It's unlikely if you gained it in a couple of days that it's fat.
