Default TOM question

Maybe someone can answer this for me... it's that TOM and I'm weighing in at 161 today as compared to my usual 157. Is this an average weight gain? When should I expect to not see it on the scale?

Totally normal, in 2 days it will be TOM and my scale is staying the same right now but it will go up. Usually I gain about 3 lbs the week before my period starts.

I usually gain about 2 pounds during TOM, but it only sticks around for a few days, maybe 3-4. Don't worry! it's totally normal to gain a bit...just water!

Yep, same here. I try to drink LOTS of water during TOM to keep from fluctuating too badly, because bloating sucks.
