Do any ladies bother to weigh in when Aunt Flo is here? I ask because she'll be knockin at my door for her monthly visit and I always gain 3 to 5 pounds. Just don't wanna see that gain starrin at me every time I log into MFP. Ur thoughts please?

    I do weight but I do not worry about it.

    I still weigh in but I don't let it bother. If I keep eating healthy and exercising, I usually see a good loss the following week. However, you should do what works for you. If you really don't want to see the scale, skip it until she leaves :)

    I still weigh, but ignore the 3lb that I have gained cos I know it will be gone again!

  • I've been really lucky that my weight hasn't actually changed when she's visiting. If it shows a gain of 3-5lb I think I'd give it a miss.

    I do, and still see a loss. She always arrives on a Wednesday and my weigh-in days are on Fridays. So far, I've not noticed a gain. Maybe I'm just lucky lol

    if you don't wanna see the gain, then don't! but I'm paranoid and have to weigh in every day, so that includes aunt flo for me.
  • Thanks for all the input my fellow MFP peeps :-)
  • Aunt Flo's not visited me for almost two years, so she's not a concern for me anymore.
