The last couple of months I've noticed that I've been tighter at my TOM. I've spoken to some people that this affects and some it doesn't. I'm just curious...

I am super tight during that TOM. I always lose at least 2 -3 pounds that week.

I don't notice a difference during TOM. I wish I did though, I'd love to lose a couple of pounds during TOM. Unfortunately, I usually gain because my craving are OFF THE CHART during TOM! Ughhh

I am not tighter at all, but I am definitely a couple of pounds heavier, crankier, and more prone to cravings for things like chocolate.

Heather - Cranky doesn't even begin to describe me. Linda Blair comes to mind...oh I'm awful! The only time I want chocolate is that time of month though. I seem to gain the Water weight, but I'm so tight I can't eat hardly...it's so unfair. Chocolate does go down quite well though.

Ok, i'm having problems right now. I started on sat. and my stomach hurts so bad. I have really bad gas. i feel like someone inflated my stomach with gas and they are squeezing my stomach! I have only had 1 feel so i'm not really sure what feeling tight is like so do you think that might be my problem?

To all of you that responded to the poll, did you notice if you got tighter during your TOM even before your first fill? I am 3 days post op, but noticed today (at the start of TOM:angry_smile:) that although my liquids are going down, they aren't going down as easy. Just curious to know the answer to that.

It was after I had some restriction that I noticed.

But my fills came right about my TOM lol
