I usually gain 2-3 pounds when I am on mine, and it used to take me a week after I was finished before my weight went back down to normal, but now it is just the day after I'm finished. Sometimes I gain 5 pounds, so try not to worry, but watch your weight, and be careful! :D

I usually gain about 2 or 3. I was talking to my PE/Health teacher, and she says that supposedly, it causes your weight to fluctuate all month long, and only about 3 days you are at your actual weight. She even said she's not sure if she totally believes it, but i thought i would throw it in for the fun of it.
