Period- And Weight gain

[Cityredgirl]

Heres the lowdown ladies on Tuesday i weighed myself on the wii fit i was ecstatic with a 4lb loss in a week to take me down to 15st3lb... , fast forward weds night when i came on my period, when i got back from work yesterday i used the wii fit to weigh myself and do a 45min session and it told me i had put on a .....whopping 7lb!!!!!!!!! I have never been so deflated in my life how the heck does your body change that much in a day and half, My diet has been fantastic and ive been using the wii for 45mins each day...Im gutted :cry:

I have always believed it is fluid, that is why we get that awful bloated feeling. Give it another couple of days before you weigh yourself again and I am sure you will see you are back to Tuesdays weight or less. Just remember next month don't weigh yourself around your period.
I have also tried to stick to never weighing myself more than once a week whenever I am dieting as it causes to much stress.
Keep going you know you are doing well.

hiya hun!


naughty naughty! you little scale hopper! I really wouldnt worry tho hun i know a few ladies that put half a stone on at totm! it will go back down. Its not possible to put 7lbs on in a day qand a half! you have to eat 3500 cals to gain a lb! It will even out i promise!

An STOP WEIGHING MRS! its no good for your motivation! ive took the batteries out of my scales so im not tempted! I must admit i have put them back in this morning to check cos i still cant beleive i lost 3lbs on my tues weigh in!

hope u r having fab day

love katie

@Kae , I know i will take your advice, Its just too tempting when you turn the wii on, but ill make a promise to myself that i wont have a weigh in for another 2 weeks or 4, As for 7lb gain i know...you shouldof seen my face, after a days food off : 1 muller rice
1 slice of fruit loaf
prawn and fish curry
half can of tuscan bean soup and pitta and 2 coke zero's there was no chance in hell...hehe . YOU are the voice of reason. ....xx

i use the wii and it asks you to do a daily body test where it weights you ect ect lol.. so i also weigh myself daily on that BUT only ever take my actua scales as the acurate readings lol..

and yeah i can weight 2-3lbs heavier on monthly but after that i loose them 2 ,3 lbs and an extra few as well .. love it lol.. i used to hate my monthly times but now its like yeyy weight loss for deffo lol.

i seem (and this is only from the couple of months that ive been dieting) that i put that weight on(or its really hard for me to loose) half way between my periods....
i dont put on weight (that ive noticed so far) during my horrids!! ehhh im just a wierd one!

the nice thing is the drop after your period ends

Our weight fluctuates by up to 2lbs daily, mostly down to fluid, hence why you should not weigh yourself daily It can be demoralising and also cause you to sabotage your efforts ...so don't do it, or I'll send Kae round Oh and yep, our weight can increase by up to 7lbs when its that special time of the month Don't you feel glad to be a woman?? lol

hey yes u can defo put on afew pounds around monthly time, its definately normal and u shouldnt beat urself up over it, before u were dieting didnt u ever get that bloated feeling wen u were on ur monthlys? i did and still do its just wat us womens bodys go thro (lucky men) but it will even out and ul b fine u mite even find u hav lost a bit more than expected too
