how much do you gain...

when you're very-PMSy???

I weighed myself last Fri. - 158
Today - 161!!!

I KNOW I didn't gain 3 pounds in 3 days, and I am supposed to get my period tomorrow Very discouraging.

I think that is about average. A lot of water gain. I dread that time of the month.

welcome to my week! as if it wasn't enough that all of those hormones raging through your body make you want to cry or scream at everything that happens....but you get to gain weight also! sometimes life is just crappy.

Re: how much do you gain...

3-5 pounds ...but i look at it positively - after the water retention period - you are 3-5 pound slighter plus any other weight that you have lost,...that is a great feeling!

Re: how much do you gain...

it is totally normal to fluctuate a few pounds anytime, depending on diet, hydrations, etc. That is why I tell people to not weight themselves EVERYDAY.

Usually none.

Re: how much do you gain...

5 pounds every month...actually, at any given time my weight fluctuates 5 pounds either way. I've been like that for as long as I can remember, whether I'm 150 lbs or 120 lbs.
