Hi there, well done on the loss. Very few women lose at totm, due to water retention, so don't worry you'll probably see a better loss next week. Fingers crossed. And join in on the Online Class if you feel like it, we would be happy to have you. Take care. x

Anyone else get sore knees at totm or is it just me?! Xx

I've never heard of aquaban, I might try it. I don't get sore knees, just sore boobies! x

I generally dont get affected with my totm, only if its a particularly bad one, which it is now, which I think is why I was a sts last week.
But hang on in there - it'll catch itself up in the end

I don't suffer during my TOTM but the week before I am ravenous (as in 'scabby deid horse eating' ravenous), water laden and generally slower, sorer and less flexible. But this balances out against not really being hungry during TOTM. So I tend to loose during but slow down the week before. I have found that evening primrose oil every day all the time and a banana once a day during the run up makes a significant difference - it's a potassium balancing thing with the 'nana and it also helps with the 'chocolate craving' thing for me (especially since as a diabetic chocolate is a really limited option for me LOL).

Yeah susie that's exactly what i'm like just now!! I'm so hungry!!
But I'm not usually which makes me think it's this new pill, can't wait to get off of it, I get all my symptoms the week before too but just call that week my totm cos during my actual period I'm fine and lose no problem!!
Our bodies are strange huh!! Xxx

Well done on losing!!!!! be it 1/2 a lb or sts both are better than putting on

I used to use the depo injection and have just moved to the implant about 2 months ago, great stuff no totm for me
AND I can assure you no weight gain from it either. The only weight I have gained is from my love of pies!!

Yeah the doc keeps wanting me to have the implant but i'm not keen, I'd rather stick with the pill and just get something I like!! I hope the next one is better!!
Def love to stop feeling like I've got the flu every month!! Was off sick last month thinking I had a virus but I feel the same now so it's obviously just the pill that doesn't agree with me!!
Women stuff huh!! Bet my oh is sick of hearing about my women stuff!! Lol
