Ladies ..The Monthly Visitor

Yeah I know some nosy azz guys r gonna come up in here too! Lol

I am just venting today, plus I have been in grumpy mode all week.
On April 30 I hit a all time low of 129.6 I have gradually been creeping up since then. This morning I am 134.6. I know this is my normal monthly pattern but it is so-so annoying. It's worse now because I am trying to transition to maintenance. I am well below my goal but I want to get as low as 125.

How much do you all bounce during TOM? It's messing w my head. I keep thinking I was going to jump right back up to 243.

I lose crazy-fast the 10days prior to my period, then I start to climb during it- usually 3-5lbs. I usually hold onto it for a while too.. it's frustrating but now that I graph it, I can see the month to month is still trending down.. but once I start upping cals regularly.. yeah, I'll be worrying over this myself.

I am actually experiencing the opposite.  Although I LOVE losing weight prior to my period arriving, it appears I am starting the change and I'm NOT ready yet.  I'm not even 40!  Yes, I am thrilled about not having periods, but my luck I will go through peri for over 10 years lol!

Wish I had some advice, but the saving grace is that the weight gain is only temporary with your period.

Jo I go through the exact same thing.

Sara, I had Novasure ablation so I have to guess when my cycle hits-usually around my daughters.

Doesn't the change make it hard for women to lose weight?
