    I have pmdd so I'm a raging lunatic at a week before. I gain so much water weight I can't fit into my normal clothes. That's what is frustrating. I have to find "fat" clothes lol. My face breaks out more now than it did as a teen.
  • That is what I was going to suggest to her. 3 days afterwards seems like a good amount of time for the body to bounce back to a more normal weight. I would suggest just staying away from the scale if you know you will show a higher weight and you know its just going to frustrate you... I wouldnt take it as a reflection of your weight loss goals just like I personally don't get upset at the size labels on clothes since its all subjective (TOM or company sizing)...

    Aw I'm so crazy a week before too. Sucks. I get so sad and anxious. My friend practices eastern medicine and gave me some chinese herbs that really really helped but I'm horrible about remembering to start them. She also gave me a concoction for bloating.
  • Oh goodness... the breakouts... I can empathize, I'm 32 and I STILL break out. I'm battling a break out right now as we speak. I know that part has to be hormonal... but its still super frustrating....
