Okay, girls. This is serious. I am getting healthier, but every month, that one week before my TOM, I look like I'm five months pregnant. it doesn't seem to matter how much water I drink, etc. Exercise helps somewhat, but does anybody have any great secrets to getting that belly to un-bloat during that oh-so-special monthly pre-visit?:grumble:

    I find Midol to be helpful! I don't take it all week, just those worst couple of days.

    that works every time! Plus if you have major cramps that helps too.

    I asked my doctor for a water pill. I ONLY take 1-2 per month and only when I absolutely need it. It has helped tremendously during TOM
