Reply from Melissa, Age 17 - 06/01/08 - IP#: 208.83.215.xxx ya its just water weight. one week i weighed myself and i had gained like a pound but i had been really good all week, working out and eating well. and then when i weighed myself the next week i had lost around 5 pounds. so the weight i had lost the week before showed up then bc my body had gotten rid of the water. it was scary though, thinking i had gained weight. so try not to worry about it.
Reply from Samantha, Age 16 - 06/01/08 - IP#: 69.123.117.xxx well when you get your period, your body is preparing itself for a possible pregnancy, so its all water weight
Reply from Ellie, Age 15 - 06/01/08 - IP#: 212.30.5.xxx would that all be like fluid weight? or fat as well?
Reply from Samantha, Age 16 - 06/01/08 - IP#: 69.123.117.xxx yeahhh its completely normal to gain anywhere from 1-8 pounds while you're on your period. just make sure to drink LOTS of water while you're on it, and just wait until the following week to weigh yourself.
