Please help a clueless male here.

TOTM = Time Of The Month?

If so, no worry, that is increased water retention, you stupid bodys response to
the pending fluid loss.

My wife gains up to 4 lbs at that time.

Cheers Marc

It doesn't seem fair, does it? 25% of my weigh-in's are fat,
period ones, because for some reason I always seem to start
on Friday - which happens to be my regular weigh-in day.

Is that all you women can talk about? If you were in a room
with mixed company would you talk about TOM. Why not put TOM
in the subject so the guys can filter those messages out.

it can also be shortened with TOM.

Nah, we can talk about a lot more ... but choose not to,
keeps things interesting. And if talking weightloss
problems, in a room with mixed company, probably still
would talk about TOM. But I'm evil, pure evil. <G> 3 gals
in my house, the boys are used to it ... heck, even they
talk about it at times ... it's just a natural part of
life. TOM can and does play havoc with weightloss, plain
and simple. It's an explanation of a temporary gain, of a
fantastic whoosh, mad munchies, wierd cravings, whatever -
all weight issues, all on topic on this board. It will keep
popping into discussions within this group and these
contexts. And heck, I can't hardly remember to get to the
potty until it's an emergency, so how can anyone expect
that would I remember to put TOM into a subject line. For
that excuse, I use age. <g>

Smile GW, there's a whole lot worse we could talk about.

Well at least you know how to account for the slight
increase. You'll be happy dancing after next week's WI!

Yes, that's it! Your wife is lucky - in the days before my
little plastic insert, I put on 5 whole inches round the
middle and 3 bra sizes every time, and then suffered floods
like nothing ya don' wanna know! YEKK!

That's one aspect I will never miss! :) My little plastic
doodad has improved life like you'd never believe, and I
quite often miss a month! I save masses of money this way...

No pain these day - just a little weight gain and a general
feeling of grumpiness, rather than increasing 3 clothes
sizes, a week of agony and throwing up, floods like Niagra,
and a system that never learned to work on a regular monthly
cycle! I love Minerva!

(((HUGS))) for the cramps - BTDT and it really was worse
than childbirth!

LOL! And my hub loves to talk about what he goes through
twice a year - the testing involved for bladder cancer ...
always makes the men cringe.
