weight gain before period

[vandrew4]

is this actually a real life thing to gain weight before your period. I've been weighing myself every day for a few weeks and have suddenly put on 4lbs seemingly in 48 hours even though I'm eating the same as usual. will it magically come off again?

Yes this happens to me before my period and also around ovulation. It comes straight back off within a day of af starting! It’s great being a woman

oh well, good to know it should come off as long as i stick to the same food as usual
