I have been trying to get my periods lined out, im on progesterone cream well August was a wild month... and thou i felt i was loosing because i was eating right and i felt smaller... the scale didnt move.

I thought well... water of course... after i finally have my period im sure i will loose. Well i hope i dont gross anyone out here... this isnt a new thing to me i have fibroids and have had very heavy flows before.... well in 3 days i have went thru almost 18 tampons and a few pads.

I dont think it was all water... i tihnk it was blood as well.

I have lost 6 lbs in 3 days! I fell tons better! I mowed the lawn last night and felt awesome after.... for a week i hadnt exersiced because i was feeling dizzy and weak.

Anyone else loose like that during or right after TOM?

I always maintain (or even gain a pound, like this month) for three days leading up to my period, and all during. Like you, I also have a very flow, and like clockwork, I lose 2-3 pounds the day after my ToM ends, and another pound or two that week. It makes the wait for the scale worthwhile!!

I'll be perfectly on plan for an entire month and will not lose an ounce. Then TOM hits and I'll lose anywhere from 1-3 pounds. It has become a pattern.
