*blushes* i know this is something that you'd have to talk with ur mom but she's not into the whole "watch what you eat, fittness thing". During your period, do you have to eat less or eat more to keep the weight off? Do you have to excersise more or less during that time too? can you tell me what specifically what excserices and foods i should do to maintain/lose weight while on period?
PS. I'm 14yrs old , 63 inches tall, somwhere between 104-109lbs.

why change a healthy diet when you menstruate? Any weight gain is temporary bloating.

Listen to your body. Symptoms like cravings (for sweets) and a general feeling of fatigue are normal. This is a perfect time for you to slow down and give your body a "time out". If you usually jog for exercise, try walking. If you lift weights, add some light stretching or yoga (no inverted poses or twists, though). Eat as you normally would - physically it is not necessary to compensate - enjoy a small indulgence if you crave it, just don't go overboard and let your period become an excuse to overeat. P.S.: She may not care that much about "fitness" but she certainly cares about you - don't ever stop talking to your Mom.
