 Re: Ladies I have a question Send a PM to Bren and she'll let you in the women's forum. In the meantime, yes, I've heard that TOM can mess things up a bit. Wait till it passes before you get frustrated. I've been "going through the change" for the past 8 years (?!) and I'll tell you, those womanly hormones can be blamed for lots of fluctuations. Don't worry about it.

| Re: Ladies I have a question Some women retain water during their TOM. So, yes it's normal not to lose weight (ie: pounds) because you are retaining water. But follow Dr. ATkins' advise and not only weigh yourself but measure yourself----losing inches is a sign of weight loss (ie: fat loss) too.

| Re: Ladies I have a question Not only don't I lose - I can gain like 5 pounds overnight very easy during that time

Do not say you will give it a try; instead, make a commitment to do it right! When you get married, does the religious figure ask: "Do you swear to give this person a try?" It takes more than a try to quit addictions; it takes commitment. A commitment is a promise that you stick with, no matter what. |

| Re: Ladies I have a question I never weigh myself during TOM because usually the scale would be up a few pounds. i wait until a day or 2 after it's gone and that's usually when i see a change. don't get discouraged, it's totally normal! good luck! |
