Do you weigh yourself during TOM?

I do but I don't expect to see much movement on the scale or possibly a slight gain. Today actually I weighed in and between Easter and my TOM I was still actually down .6 of a pound. It may not seem like much but this week its a huge victory for me

So is it pretty normal to see a 3-4lb gain on the scale during TOM? I mean. I weighed myself and I am currently 4lbs heavier than what I usually am. Is it all because of TOM?

I weigh myself; I find as long as I'm working out consistently and drinking plenty of water, everything will work itself out. Besides it keeps me accountable for that week, and if I give one week a month an excuse for weight gain...where does it stop? "Oh the scale went up this week because of Easter." "It's up this week because it was my birthday" Before you know it, you have given half the year away to weight gain excuses. Step. on. the. scale.

I weigh myself every other day, regardless of my TOM, it helps me keep track of my body flucuations, and most of the time, if I haven't lost anything in several days, it's usually b/c my sodium levels are too high and I have to up the water intake a little bit. I started a 7 day cleanse from GNC on Saturday, and you have to eat only lean proteins and healthy snacks and such, which helped both keep me away from the candy on Easter, and with the sugars I've been craving since this week is my TOM. Happy I'm seeing results!! But I still am not updating my weight every day, even though the scale has continued to go down (yay!!), just so I can make sure that number doesn't go back up again. But getting on the scale every other day is definitely help me stay on top of my goal

Yup. Then I subtract 7 pounds and go eat a chocolate bar.

Yep, absolutely do.

No, because I know it will be more than normal and I don't want to set myself up for disappointment.

I do. This past week has been my TOM, and surprisingly I lost about 3lbs. Crazy.

I am also on a new BC, so I am hoping that my weight-loss spikes a bit more once my body adjusts. I am just approaching my 3 month mark.

I do weigh myself. I don't always record that weight. I will sometimes gain 10 lbs when TOM shows up only to drop those 10 lbs 3 days later...lol...sometimes I gain nothing. I guess it just depends.

I do and suprisingly for the first time ever, I lost 3llbs even though it was that time.

I say do it, its good to know how your body is changing week by week so you can accommodate for it

I bloat up bad pre-TOM, so during the actual time I usually have a loss. When I was on bc I thought it was hormonal (my weight would only change during the 7 days of placebos), but since it is continuing now, I don't know... but I always get my lowest weights during my TOM (right now on day 3 and I'm down two pounds from where I was Saturday. Down 0.2 pounds since yesterday). I just have to be mindful that I don't get to keep these numbers usually.

yes. and you know why? ... because when i see the scale moves up a couple pounds sometimes and then i see it go back to normal the day after tom goes away, it's good to know that. because of tracking, i worry less about the numbers during tom even when its crazy numbers and know that it's just the norm. I can even predict when tom comes because of the day before lol! i track it all because it's good to know that my body fluctuates but always has a pattern. same with when i lose weight. i actually gain .5 pound or more for a week then drop some. it's a fun experiment lol

I use to gain the week I ovulate AND during TOM. Now that I'm gluten intolerant, I don't gain those weeks, but I don't lose either. I still weigh every day and because of that, that's how I know that is what my body is doing. I use to let it bother me, but I'm older and wiser now and don't let little fluctuations get to me. I use to gain 3-5 lbs during those weeks and it was so frustrating!

I weigh myself everyday and graft it. I know it sounds ocd, but it helps me to see where my wt spikes the most during my cycle and how long it takes me to get the excess wt off after my cycle. So to answer your question, yes I do.

I do weigh myself at that time. I can honestly gain up to 7 - 10 pounds in water weight and have to wear pants 2 sizes bigger which drives me crazy & it never fails to be right at a time when I need to look my best. I track my cycle and hit the herbal diuretics a few days before I start and a few days into it. Such a miserable time because I swell up like a water balloon. I sooo envy my post-menopausal & post-hysterectomy friends!!
