Does anyone else seem to ONLY lose weight on their period?

It seems like since I entered the last 5-10 pounds to go range, I can only lose weight on my period. Typically 2 pounds, but the rest of the time it's pretty constant/fluctuates up. WEIRD! most people gain.

Anyone else like that?

    Yes me too! It fluctuates down a bit, then up a bit right before, and then I bounce down to a new low during my period. It's kind of frustrating because it's only been since I hit my healthy weight range that it's become so difficult to lose weight!

    Lol, I try my best not to give in to cravings. I don't think eating has to do with mine, just my body being stupid :P It's even worse because I'm one of those "weigh every day-ers" so that can get a little annoying. I take what the scale says with a grain of salt, but still! Stop messing wtih me, you plastic bully! haha.

    My weight usually drops at the start of my period. No gains for me.

    For me it's kinda the same. But i am on the pill, you guys too??I gain at the when i stop my last pill and those two days where nothing happens. Seems like once the flow starts I drop to preperiod weight. Then on last days of ny period extra. During the rest of the month nothing. Seems like the pill is keeping me from losing??

    Same here - slow or no loss during most of the month. First 3-4 days of my bleed I lose around 4lbs (the whole months loss in one go really).
