How to Lose Weight in 2 Weeks Naturally

Recommended Answer:

Continue on with your daily routine. It's just your body retaining a bit of water; after your menses passes, so too will the bloating. If you don't have some already, go to your local pharmacy and get some Midol or a similar over the counter pill that can address the issue.

Other Answers:

• Water is retained when bloated so you may gain weigh but then lose the water weight along with losing blood from shark week (period) lol and plus sometimes women poop more often almost everyday for some because when your bloated its pushing up against your bowel thing and makes you want to poo. If you want to gain weight just eat more than usual?
• yes. i always put on a few pounds during but then it comes right off again, providing you stick at the diet and dont eat 100 bars of chocolate :)
