Answers:
Ya you gain a little, its normal, you gain water weight and etc!. Your body is preparing for pregnancy and when it doesnt happen you have your period!. lol!.!.!. dont worry your weight will go back to normal after!.
If you pig out on junk food it wont help ya either, but when you get your period most women need the junk food!.
Dont worry about it everything will go back to normal after its done!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

OK, a fluctuation of 1!.04 pounds is not really considered "all over the place"!. In fact, it's normal for weight to fluctate 2 to 3 pounds during the course of one day depending on a multitude of factors!.

Your period definately affects this because hormones cause water retention (and sometimes cravings, as in your case)!. Make sure you drink plenty of water to help flush accumulated fluids and consider taking a diuretic starting a couple of days before and leading up to your period!.

The binging may also have something to do with your weight-loss!. Are you eating enough calories to stave off your hunger!? If not, you'll suffer a double-whammy because not only are you binging because of a caloric deficiency but also because of the hormone changes!.

Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
