I actually did start my period yesterday, so that's probably it. It's just frustrating. I'm trying to up my water intake. It's amazing what hormones will do to your psyche. It's like everytime I look in the mirror, I feel disgusting and ugly and fat...and here I am 70 lbs. lighter than where I started, I'm in the "overweight" category...and just a coule of weeks ago I was feeling pretty cute.

When i get into the "I am disgusto" mode, it's almost always a sure sign that my period is starting.

Thanks, I'll try to watch the sodium. As for whether I am in starvation mode, who knows? I'm eating my three meals, but they are pretty little...so who knows?

Thanks,

HI Robyn,

It is more than likely water retention because you are close to you period. Since you say you have not been overindulging and you are drinking enough water. You might want to take it easy on the sodium. Have you been eating enough so that your body hasn't gone into starvation mode? To really gain a pound you need to eat 3400 calories so more than likely it is just water.
