increased weight at time of month..

[emma10]

hey, Was wondering if ppl put on more weight during that time of month. I have started cutting last week and felt slimmer even just after a few days. I had a sneaky weigh in (at night when usualy do it first thing) and I weighed less, now my blimen period has started (im on pill but was late taking it twice grrr so got it early) and now I weighed and was nearly a kg heavier.
Its so disheartning I guess I just want to blame it on something

Lots of people gain weight during that time. It goes away once the hormeones settle. I can gain up to 4 lbs. during that time. It always goes away 4 days later. No worries/stay positive.

I don't take my weight too seriously starting a week before my TOM until it's over. My weight goes all over the place, normally peaking at about 4 pounds heavier than it will be the day after it's over. It's the only time that I might end up weighing less at night (after a day full of eating) than I do in the morning (if you're going to weigh yourself that much, please, only be doing it out of curiosity...if you do it because you spaz over every ounce, remove the scales from your house and use the scale at your gym, only).

The good thing, though, is I've noticed when you're eating clean the bloating you get is a lot less noticable than when you're eating whatever.

I got my last one on the day of my competition. Luckily I was water depleted and that helped, but I didnt come in as depleted as my show before that.
