WHY? WHY? WHY?

So, i weighed this morning, and gained a pound. Really disappointed, I'm following protocol with no cheating... However I am on my period.. Has anyone else experienced this?

Yes! Me! VLCD5 and only down 1.8 lbs pre-loading weight. TOM appeared yesterday. I'm on the drops so I started before it got here and now I am really kicking myself! I wish I had waited! Everyone is telling me the whoosh will come but I want it NOW!

Yep, probably Aunt Flo is to blame. Don't forget that all kinds of hormonal processes are in play and some of them like us (women) to hold on to every precious bit of fat/fluid. Hang in there and I'll betcha it'll come right back off.

Most definately...I usually dont weigh myself during my TOM because i usually gain about 4-6 lbs of water weight, give yourself a few days and stick to our wonderful WOE and you will be just fine :-)

I had the opposite happen, I lost 2.2lbs the first two days of TOM. It lasted a bit longer than normal, but other than that, didn't effect me. Guess everyone is different.

Glad I am losing a bit so far because it sounds like next week is going to be depressing for me based on most results
