    Yup usually 10 to 15 pounds, but this last one was only 7 so I was relieved but still sucks! Just when you start getting a good number, its TOM and BAM now your back to losing the same 10 lol

    I get bloated too, and usually gain somewhere between 3-5 pounds of water. But it's usually gone in a couple days. I always try to increase my water intake and it relieves some of the bloating.
    My advice: drink lots of water.

    It happens to lots of people. In fact, it is one of the symptoms addressed by Midol and Pamprin. All the other potential symptoms that women experience before/during menstruation are listed here: http://www.periodsymptoms.org/

    HA! I noticed this last month and asked the same question.

    I gained 3 lbs the wk before my period last month. Stay away from the scale until about day 7 or so.

    Solution? DON'T GO NEAR YOUR FREAKING SCALE!!!!!

    Ladies - this is not hard. you have you period. every. month. You know you crave things. You know you bloat. You know you're moody.

    FOR THE LOVE OF GOD - STOP POSTING ABOUT IT!!! I'll bet at least half of the members of this site are women. we get it. PROMISE.
