Hi Ladies,
For those of you who are taking the pill, do you factor your 'cycle' into your contest prep? I'm on seasonal - the pill where you only have period once every 3 months. I was thinking that strategically scheduling my period might help me drop extra water or hurt by making me retain extra water. Any advide on if/when in relation to the show would be much appreciated.
I'm currently just over 4 weeks out from the show with 2 months left until my next scheduled cycle.
Thanks!

I do exactly that. I tend to retain water just before and am my leanest just after my period. I'm on Nuvaring, and I will manipulate my cycle to make sure that I have my period just before my show.0

I lost my period three months before my show, so I didn't have to worry about it, but my competitor friends did just what you mentioned and had success0
