Why is it that every time it's "that time of the month" I gain 2-3 lbs? It's very depressing...Does this happen to everyone?

Sometimes. It depends on my sodium intake because it does cause me to eat differently. Everyone is different though. There was a discussion on this months ago. Some women gain weight during time of ovulation vs. TOM. Keep your head up. It's just water retention.

Wow! So many of you are doing great already. Makes me anxious and nervous at the same time to weigh in on Monday. I just hope I got the Christmas-day binge weight off.

I usually don't gain on my period, but I don't lose either. Same with ovulation. Come on menopause!

Hey I'm new to this site and I think this thread will be really motivating for me by already seeing some of your results. My new years resolution is to lose at least 30 pounds in 2012 so this seems like a good challenge for me.

Well I am almost off of TOM I should be off tomorrow YAY!!!

I gain lot of times with TOM because of the hormones and crazy cravings.

I weighed in this morning and I am still the same as Tuesday so I will weigh in maybe Wednesday. So many challenges on here that weigh in on different days so think I will stay with Tuesday weigh ins for my official weigh in.

I wish I could find a way to control my emotions. This month they have made crazy with TOM. I cried about everything!.. Tomorrow I will start back making sure I get my walk in and counting my calories to a T... It sooo cold out now which sucks cause I just want to stay cuddle up in bed where it warm

Hey Everybody!

Who's ready to put 2011 to rest? What a year it has been. The holidays were precious and bittersweet. So many of my loved ones and friends are going through very, very rough times. My first response = emotional eating. Yet, the overindulging wasn't as horrible as past binges.
Small changes, but something has noticeably shifted.

I'll see where I've landed after weighing in tomorrow morning. For this challenge, I'm picking one plan and sticking with it. Last few weeks, I've been switching from calorie counting, to FatSmashing, to low-carbing, back to calorie counting - not a reliable approach at all. In hindsight, it was probably a subtle form of procrastination.

Don't want to be kicking myself come springtime, wishing I made different choices now - so I'm back on plan tomorrow (Friday).

Good Morning Everyone,
I love reading all of the posts. Here's to getting through another holiday weekend. No doubt I won't make my New Year's goal. Well, it was an ambitious one. I'll shoot for the Valentine Day Goal. I'm into week 3 of 3FC and a weight loss strategy and I've lost 6.3 lbs. This is where I usually start drifting when I'm not doing meetings, etc. So, I'm really hoping that the 3FC community will help me stay on track.

Sandy - You crack me up with the menopause comment. Just wait, honey, pre-menopause I could drop 3 lbs a week! I do remember TOM, and have to say that kissing that goodbye did not break my heart! LOL

You're a great group. Here's to a successful day!

Valentine Challenge:
S/192.6
C/192.2 (-4)
G/Under 180

New Year's Goal 189.9 - This will be tricky!
Long Term Goal 147

Have a great day everyone!

Happy Friday Lovelies!!!

Hope everyone is feeling well and ready to rock into the New Year. I am so thankful for this wonderful group. Even over the "wires," I sense "real" and genuine support and warmth from all you Challenge Chicks here, my co-travelers on this fitness journey.

Avoiding the scale for 3 weeks (and the mindless, emotional eating of sugar and refined carbs) resulted in a gain of almost 5 1/2 pounds - just within 20 days - ugh. But here's where I'm suddenly and freakishly optimistic - those pounds ain't welcome and they're not stayin' I'm so ready to feel great again.

Have a great day everyone!

Jean
