    I'm lucky because for me it doesn't go up. I tend not to lose though if it is my tom. :/

    My TOM doesn't really affect my weigh in's.
    Make sure you are drinking a lot of water & keep an eye on your sodium whilst you are on :)

    I can gain 1 - 3 pounds during Tom & sometimes nothing...hate weighing in during but I don't let it bother me because the numbers always go down afterwards.

    I'm only affected if I eat like a madwoman during it. Otherwise, my weight doesn't really change.

    I don't have Tom visit me any more(funny reference) But when he did...I like you had a weight gain always and felt bloated...drinking lots of water and herbal tea really helped. It never stayed on...when tom left so did the weight...;) keep strong. Lois:flowerforyou:

    I don't gain, I lose. Then bounce back up again, sadly.

    Generally I see no change, sometimes even a loss. But I feel 15 pounds heavier regardless of the fact that I drink a crap ton of water everyday and decrease sodium.

    Hi..I can gain as much as 10 pounds depending on what I eat - the more salt the more bloating, the higher the weight. I try not to weight myself the few days leading up or during.
