Who else experiences swelling around ovulation? What are you eating? I'm shocked. 🫤 I started swelling a lot a few days before ovulation. Yesterday for breakfast: scrambled eggs, a small cucumber, and a piece of carrot cake with tea. For dinner: 7 dumplings with 15% sour cream, a vegetable salad, a mandarin, and tea with a piece of carrot cake. 🫤 I didn't eat anything else. Am I eating too much? I stepped on the scale and gained +500g 😭 I'm tired. I can't seem to lose weight. Water leaves, then it comes back.
А кто-нибудь уже в январе отдыхал? Там холодно? Сама хочу в сахл хашиш. Отдыхала я пока только в Шар…

It's not fat, it's water

Just extra fluid, I don't weigh myself on those days of my cycle

Marina The fat won't go away as long as there's water retention.

Swelling is normal every month, and it won't go away no matter what you eat. It's hormonal, so why fight the inevitable? If you're in a calorie deficit, you'll still lose weight, and these fluctuations will happen too, just at a lower weight)

Katya So, even with fluid retention, the fat will still be lost? I thought my weight wouldn't budge until the fluid was gone.

Katya It definitely will. I lost 25 kg, and I always gain 2 kg during my cycle due to PMS. They go away on their own later.
