    Up to 8lbs....yup it sucks. Usually 5lbs. I balloon up the week before, stay that way during and then it is gone and the weight too.

    I gain around 8 to 10 lbs on "those days" but I think it's because it only happens every few months for me. Weighed myself today. 9 lbs lighter but it's only really 1 pound because 8lbs is mother natures fault!

    3-5 pounds for me, but if I continue to eat responsibly and exercise, it goes away and I continue losing as normal too.

    Usually 5-8 pounds, though last month I actually dropped 1 pound during shark week.

    I actually stay the same, sometimes even losing weight while on my period. Of course I have some extra cravings, but I try not to give in. If I do give in then I just exercise a little more that day.

    Just finished and I was up 5 lbs. It looks like I will actually lose weight and be down a few from where I was before TOM.
