female only Stall Before Monthly Visitor....

[Kristin 34]

Does anyone else seem to stall for a few days before your monthly period?? I'm noticing a trend, and I'm just wondering if this is normal.

I don't get a period thanks to my Implanon, but I do notice that around the time when I *should* get it my weight fluctuates a bit. I'm guessing it's Water weight.

Oh yes, every month, even before surgery, I gain 2-5 lbs the week before but it dissapears the week after, just Water weight for me....thank goodness!

Yes, I'm three months out and each month I've stalled the week before my period and within a day or two of it starting I drop 2-4lbs seemingly over night.

I'm nearly two years out and I actually gain a few pounds every month the week before my cycle. I always gasp in shock the morning I hit the scale and see the gain. Then I think about what time of month it is and shrug it off. It always drops right back off once I'm done.

Thank you all! I'm glad not to be the only one! This drives me crazy! Part of being a woman I guess. This is the first time since my surgery that I actually gained a couple pounds. My period has come and I'm back down three pounds! phew!
