I got on the scale this morning only to learn that I've gained 1 lb. Does anyone know if this has anything to do with premenstruation, ie) retaining water??? I've kept within my limits with my food and exercise like normal.
Thanks!! :explode:

    Oh it ALWAYS happens to me around TOM...
    Some of the others suggested not weighing right before or during, cause your numbers will usually be off. Drinking lots of water will help. :flowerforyou:

    I have vowed never to weight around TOM because of the the bloating and all the other glorious things.
    I agree drinking lots of water is a big help.

    Thanks SOOOOOOO much for the input/support!!!! I'm so relieved to know I'm not alone!!! TOM can also be blamed for why I gave into doughnut temptation today at work (they're having a 'food day'). I never give into temptation like this!!!! Being a woman is tough sometimes! :embarassed:

    I like weighing around it...I get to go, "Wow, look how much I weigh!", and then in a few days when it's over I always weigh less than my pre-TOM weight. It's the only time I record my scale weight because I'm at my lightest LOL.
