I have been on Bontril for 1 week exactly now, with weight lost every day, however I just started that blessed time yesterday morning and today when I weighed I had not lost or gained anything. Has anyone experienced a temporary plateau during this part of their womanly cycle? Kind of embarrassing to ask but I don't want to stress if unnecessary. Thanks :)

yes, I tend to gain water weight while TOM comes around. Most of us here do, so dont be alarmed. If you gain anything it will be water that drops after TOM leaves. Keep to your diet and keep exercising because it helps a lot during this time. If you feel extremely bloated and have water weight cramps then take some diurex, it helps alleviate excess water in the body. I lost 6 lbs one TOM. Just make sure to get the capsules in the pink or blue box.

Yes it's normal to not lose and even gain during that time of month....but also just because you've been losing every day for the first week doesn't mean that will continue. Even when it's not that TOM there may be days or even weeks you don't lose. I just want you to be prepared in case it happens....so you won't panic.

Good luck.

Thank you for the replies. I need to walk today on the treadmill and make sure I'm getting enough water. I hope I don't have weeks where I don't lose, even with the warning just the thought makes me panicky, lol. This week has given me a glimpse of 'ME', the 'ME' that I feel so good being and I just can't wait to have that feeling permanently and to know I can be a healthy role model for my children as they grow up :)
