how much weight do you put on before and after your period?

Question

I have been feeling like huge and i have been working out an hour everyday and today i started my monthly would that be why i feel so fat and how much do you gain during this period?

Answer 1

we hold alot of water when we are on our period. so it makes us feel very very huge. i know the feeling. also because we hold water when we eat anything containing high amounts of salt our body bloats and takes a couple days to go down after out period. try not to eat anything salty, ie: chips, pretzels (you get it). also try not to drink alot of soda. remember to drink alot of water even though we carry water weight. when im on my period i notice at least a 2 pound difference at the end of it but it goes away. unless i was sitting there doing nothing packing the food down with gobs of soda!! lol but im sure we have all been there. it's good that your working out you will see the difference when your off your period.
