    There is an urban legend that if you stand on your head for a minute, do a cartwheel and then snap your fingers you will avoid the weight gain. Wait, no.. thats not and urban legend. I just made that up.

    Not an urban legend.... yet. :laugh: I'm going to spam everyone I know on facebook with this info and see how many friends I can get to stand on their heads and attempt cartwheels. :devil:

    To the OP-- If this is the first time you've had a "weigh in" while on your period, you might notice some weight fluctuation. However, if you've been active and eating healthy, I wouldn't expect to see too much of a difference. Generally speaking- if I force myself to workout in spite of the cramps and avoid falling face first into a bag of chocolates- I don't gain weight with my period (and occasionally, have a pretty decent loss). It's when I sit on the couch feeling sorry for myself and decide that I have earned milk and cookies that my period "makes" me gain weight. :smile:
