Ladies, how badly do you bloat?

Especially during "that time" of the month? I notice I can retain anywhere from 3-5 pounds, and it's so discouraging sometimes.

    I bloat horribly during my TOM and I've learned to just not get discouraged by the number and realize that it is more than likely only water retention and nothing more. If you can, just hold off on weighing yourself around that time to save yourself the worries!

    So frackin bad. I hate it but there's not much we can do about it. Its just depressing because losing weight I have new clothes in my new size but when I bloat so bad its back to the previous size, UGH. /heavy sigh

    I range anywhere from losing to gaining up to five pounds. Just depends on the month, what I'm eating, and the alignment of the stars.
