Im terrible for retaining water, im just prone to it and id say on average i can hord away about 4lbs.

The contraceptive pill i use i dont have monthlys but recently i ran out and have to wait nearly a week 2 see my nurse for more. So my body is confused and think i may be about 2 turn.

BUT .............i have put 6LBS on since this morning. Im bloated to ****.

I just wanted to know if there were any other water monsters out there and how much you gain and what you do to resolve it. I usually take water tablets but sometimes they can make it worse just depends.

If you continue to drink more water you should stop retaining. If you ate something salty the night before that can account for the bloat.

ive been trying with the water but will just have to try harder

Uh, sometimes no matter how much water I drink, if I eat something salty, I can gain that much in one night.

I don't know why my body is so sensitive to sodium, but I just make sure I keep it in check, drink plenty of fluids, and try to exercise as often as possible. The exercise helps, a LOT.

I drink water all day and some days I doesn't effect me and some days it will be 7-8lbs. I try to stay away from salt but I tend to crave meat and salty foods.

I retain water like crazy even though I don't eat things that are high in sodium. My weight can fluctuate between 8 and 10 lbs a day. I have to weight myself right after I pee when I first get up.
