For women - bloating and weighing during periods

thats what I'm blaming my zero weight loss on this past week

I gained a whole 8 lbs the last time a week before my period..I was traumatized..haha.. Dropped it by the last few days of my period though thank goodness..

Ok, so I'm hoping for menopause soon!!! But in the mean time I am still cylcing... and every month have between 2-5lbs weight gain that bothers me Imensley (spelling???) but I have great friends that remind me that it's not going to stay. And after I end up lower than when I started. Don't sweat it...we women suffer because that's how God saw fit to do it....Who are we to question it???? We are dealt a hand, lets just do it. I'm miserable during that time of the month. But my friends support me and I go on.

i usually get bloated at that time too,really like bloated and noticeably 2,dont even bother weighing yourself as your weight will go back to its normal state after u finish your period

Your body goes into high gear at this time it needs more from your food it's not that you eat more sodium it's that your body grabs more from your intake and everyone know sodium = retaining water = bloating but if you count calories and push yourself to workout you will burn more calories than normal because you're body is in high gear burning calories mode to keep up with the tom functions and workout with help ease cramps and i actually break through Plato times with the help of my monthly many times I've lost up to five pounds afterward, don't get down remember bloaing is temporary, but the weight lose is forever if u push through
