weight gain and PMS

Women,

If you gain weight while having PMS or your period, about how much weight do you gain on average?

Thanks!

For me it's usually about two pounds gained. It's all fake, though, and I find that after the first day or so, I weigh less than what I did before PMS!

Hope I could help.

It's about 2 to 3 pounds for me as well...water weight, I'm guessing. And although I hate them, I loooove to see those drop off within the first couple days!! =]

I usually gain about 5 pounds. :/

Around 2 lbs

2 to 5lbs!  It goes away all at once though.

i always gain 3 pounds and usually starts a few days before i start

Two to three pounds here, too. Dealing with it right now, in fact.

I usually gain 2-4 lbs of extreme stomach bloat. Ugh.

Around 7lbs... urrghh always a nice surprise when it comes off tho and I find I have actually lost some real weight!

I'd say I gain 2-3 pounds total.  One pound will normally show up at the beginning, and then a couple more sneak in over the next few days.  It normally takes the full week after TTOTM is over to lose all the water weight, but when it does come off it takes another 3-4 pounds with it (1.5-2 for the week of TTOTM and 1.5-2 for the week after).

I'd say about 2-5 pounds as well... sometimes it doesn't go away right after, probs due to chocolate binges, but then I just add an extra work-out to my week, and I'm fine.

between two and five pounds. and it normally happens like two weeks before my period actually starts too, which totally sucks. So, I have to wait three weeks before I am normal again.

This month a whole 10lbs not sure if that's due to constipation or PMS. I was only a good weight for about a week this month......Thought of using a Colon Cleans but don"t want to spend the money so just drinking a lot of Plum smart and Benifiber. Usually only 3-4lbs

5 pounds water weight but i always get rid of it the moment it arrives

 - i go for an 10 mile run (any form of high intensity cardio)
 - cut all my salt
 - take in potassium rich foods
 - cut out sugar
 - eat ginger

this will get of water weight in a SECOND.

about 2, 3 pounds. and also my belly doubles in size. i look like a pregnant woman. i hate it!!!! and the cravings! oh, the cravings... i suspect some of the weight is due to all the fruit i eat while pmsing as well as water weight.

My belly puffs up and I gain about 5-6 pounds.  :( It comes on about two days in advance, and doesn't go away until halfway through my TOM.
