TOM, Exercise, Protein & LCing
Can anyone tell me the effects of one's TOM on LCing? I've been monitoring my weight fluctuations on a daily basis (just curiousity, not obsession) and keeping a journal on my morning and afternoon weigh-ins since I started. Up until today, I have consistently had a lower weight in the morning, gaining a couple of pounds later on the day, because of water and food intake.
Well, today I did my morning weigh-in and I went up almost half a pound. I know it does not seem like much, but here's my question: could this be triggered because of my upcoming TOM or by excessive hydration or my protein shake or weight-training or what? My official end of week 1 weigh-in is tomorrow and I am in goal range mini goal 157.4 (actual: 157). I normally have all my PMS crampy, bloated symptoms from about 10 days before my TOM starts. As of yesterday all my symptoms started, so should I just blow this off as my TOM? Also, my TOM lasts normally a long time, and all the symptoms of PMS persists until it has ended. Should I just wait after it's ended to weigh-in? That would be about 2 weeks in duration. Is there anything I can do about excessive bloating? Okay, I know this was long, but I really need someone to help me out! Thanks a lot ciao, Armana |
Yup. It's TOM.
Up to you about weighing in the duration. Depends on how you react to a fake weight gain. That bloated feeling isn't just in your mind. If you're curious, I'd track the weight so I can better predict next month, AND to see if continued LC living ameliorated any of my symptoms. |
