Hi RebekahR ! I have the same problem. I can gain 6 or 7 lbs in the days leading up to TOM. Ir has got me down in the past, but experience tells me that the weight loss catches up with the next WI. I also get migraines, swollen feet and terrible tummy cramps and back aches which literally turns me into a couch potato for a couple of days. But the good feeling comes back once the pains have subsided and i start going for my long walks again.
