Anyone else find they put on a couple of pounds before the time of the month?

    A lot of women gain anywhere from 0-5 lbs around TOM. It's all water retention from bloating and goes away after TOM leaves. Don't worry about it :wink:

    I have noticed the weight gain just this week, but I remembered reading other posts about TOM, so I am not worrying about it. I will just continue doing what I am doing and see what the scale says next week.

    This was an extrememly timely post!

    I just put on 2lbs from yesterday due to this dreaded curse (TOM) :brokenheart:


    But alas, I do know it will pass & with some added weight as well once it passes in a week! :heart:

    Take heart, you are not alone! (And neither am I) :flowerforyou:
