    Yes 5 pounds plus. I now just don't weigh in that week.

    I gain a little in the couple of days leading up to it.. I know when it's coming and I know it's not a permanent gain. It comes off straight after

    Why was this resurrected?

    I am guessing it was the search function at work.

    I gain about 5 pounds of water weight every time. Severely annoying, especially when you're dieting.

    I usually do gain weight in that time frame so if I really have to weigh myself I take it lightly for this period... It's probably just water retention!

    Last period, I didn't gain anything. However, the scale didn't move a few days later on weigh-in day when I know I probably lost weight. Today is weigh in day again & I lost a good amount, most of which I assume I actually lost last week. If that makes sense.

    Typically, I gain and it doesn't go away until a day or so after my period ends. It can range anywhere from 2lbs-10lbs for me. Stay hydrated and stay away from the scale is my only advice.

    If I exercise, I walk, during then no I do not gain weight, I will actually lose weight but if I don't then I gain 5 to 10 pounds.

    My first thought was:

    child: "maybe it's a tumor."

    Arnold: "IT'S NOT A TUMOR!"
