    I don't seem to gain any. I know I retain SOME water though, because my lady parts feel uncomfortably tender (painful actually)... But since my weight doesn't seem to be affected, maybe the water from other parts of my body just migrates there?

    Now that I'm watching my calorie intake and drinking the amount of water that I'm supposed to be drinking, I don't. It's weird b/c I expected it to go up but it doesn't. It may stay about the same and then suddenly drop afterward, but it hasn't gone up the last 2 months that I've been keeping on track with my calories and water.

    I tend to only gain maybe two pounds max, now that I've been dieting. Before I was on a diet, I would gain a lot of weight, maybe 5 pounds. I think a lot of it had to do with the sodium intake I was at. Now that I make healthier choices all around, I am retaining a lot less water. I don't feel bloated like I used to.

    However, around my time of the month, I am a ravenous crazy woman when it comes to my cravings. The week before, all my cravings will start up. If I don't give in then, then the week of... I have to have chocolate or something sweet, at least every night. I'm surprised I don't gain more weight, but seriously, my cravings are making me a mad person!

    I know I FEEL like I gain a ton, but I don't actually gain anything.
