Question

Hi everyone!  I have my period for the first time while halfway through my 3rd week.Hi everyone! I have my period for the first time while halfway through my 3rd week. My bloating is awful!  I weigh in on Tuesday evening and I haven’t cheated at all while on this program. Has anyone weighed in gaining, rather than losing while on your period? I’m so nervous. *Full disclosure I just took a water pill hoping this will help with the bloating. Thanks! p. s. anyone from Buffalo, NY area on here?  

Answer 1

I’m on week 6 so I’ve only had one period so far, but I only lost half a pound that week. BUT lost 4 the next. I guess it evens out. Don’t get discouraged if you don’t lose this week!  

Answer 2

Yes! This happens to me every month. I gain maybe a few ounces or don’t lose for a week or 2. Then the next week I’m down 4-5 pounds.

@peculate sane here too! Water will be up, fat will be down and the following week is always satisfying! Happens every month, like clockwork!

Answer 4

I only had a . 4lb loss & several inch gains last week; so I feel you lady! Several people in this groups talked me off the ledge. After a few days the scale started to move more so stay strong, you got this. Don’t let this obstacle derail you from the big picture! Get it girl!  

Answer 5

I would always plateau the week of my period. The following week I'd loose 3-4 lbs. Don't let it worry you!  

Answer 6

Since being on the plan I have had very irregular periods. For awhile it was every other week. I had two weeks were I gained weight but only . 4 and . 2 pounds. I hold on to my weight right before my period is going to start. I am up to having lost over 50 pounds. Try not to stress over one week (I know it is hard! ). It really will all even out in the end!  

Answer 7

Yes this happens to me. I will only lose a few oz or stay the same then the next week I would have a big lose.  

Answer 8

I love in Fredonia, I have stayed the same or gone down a few oz, but have never gained during it and I’ve been averaging about every 23 days during protocol.  I get mostly chocolate products so my cravings aren’t that bad. Lol

Answer 9

I am from Buffalo!

Answer 10

It happens, just remember if you are up a little it's not actual weight. I have found that getting lots of water in makes a huge difference.  

Answer 11

I am on birth control so I always start my period on a sunday. I weigh in on Thursdays. I gain every single weigh in just before my period and then the weigh in after my period is a gigantic loss. I just know now to expect it and know that it works itself out next week.
