I hate that time of the month so much! Do any of you feel fatter during that time? I literally feel like I gained 10 lbs every time I have my period and I have trouble fitting in my pants. I never feel like doing physical activities and I just want to sit all day, lol. What a pain to go through! Anybody else feels the same?

I've had mine for 10 years and I still hate it more than anything else. Even when I sleeping at night, my husband knows that I need my space during the first 3 days... it's weird.

I don't get cramps, only back aches.

Girl, youre not alone. I have to wear those long "nighttime" pads, cause I dont like tampons.....and yessss nothing fits. When I button my skirt I feel as if I am suffocating. Oh yes, I have all the symptoms you mentioned including cramps for 3 days, back pain, and heavy bleeding. Incidentally I find that when I do a regular exercise program and eat lots of fruits and vegatables, the problem is greatly minimised. You should try it. Check out this link.

Most of the women that ever lived feel the same way. You actually do tend to gain weight during this part of your cycle because hormonal changes make your body retain water. If you're in the USA, try some Pamprin. It worked pretty well for me for both cramps and water weight gain.

God Yes I hate it so Much!
Arggggghhhh!
I can't stand it.
The pain gets me the most. The cramps hurt so bad sometimes that i just want to curl into a little ball a die.
and lets not forget the moods. I swear i will cry over everything and anything. Last month I cried while watching Ghostbusters!
I just once want to give this feeling to a man. They couldn't take it.

All women feel the same. Fluid bloat makes everything tighter for the moment.
You will get adjusted.
