Just wondering if anyone has done an in depth study on this. Sometimes my weight fluctuates a few pounds (within a few days) not related to diet or salt intake.

    I have been at this for 8 weeks and I notice that the week of AF I normally have a very small loss or a very small gain. So far with the two applicable weeks one was a .2lb loss and was a .2lb gain. Very frustrating, but at least I can contribute it to something and I normally have a big loss the following week.

    I retain 4 pounds without fail every TOM cycle.
