Why am I gaining weight around my period?

 

Check these out, too...

  • Pad prob! How do I get them from my locker to the bathroom?
  • Have a happier period--yes, really!--with our playlist
  • Does it hurt when you first get your period?
  • I need longer pads! How do I tell Mom?
  • What stinks down south?
Don’t you just love all this growing-up stuff? Well, fortunately, your weight gain is only temporary. It’s your body retaining water, so it’s normal to pack on a couple of extra pounds, but you’ll shed them as soon as your period is over. To lessen the bloats, avoid salty foods, exercise and, oddly enough, drink more water! It helps to flush the excess fluids out of your system.

No, I wouldn't recommend doing that.  I would consider talking to your mom or another adult, and also read this article to see if it helps:  http://www.girlslife.com/post/2009/06/23/007-Period-Advice.aspx.

MOD MOD MOD!!! Smile
At our school we have lockers in 6th, 7th, & 8th grade. They are tall and there aren't enough for everyone so we have to have locker buddies.
In 6th grade we got to pick our locker buddies. This year I'm in 7th grade and we got assigned locker buddies. At first I got like my best friend (yay!). Then a few days I had to switch because another pair of locker buddies weren't getting along and our teacher picked my locker to switch with them. And lucky me, I get the girl in our class who's rude, annoying, bossy, and no one likes her. I had to go to 6th grade camp with her last year, had to sit next to her in tech, and she sat next to me in class for a big chunk of the year. I'm tired of always being with her!
I asked the teacher if I could switch back that day, but she said we'll see how it goes in a week. If I don't switch, I'm gonna freak. How can I politely tell the teacher I really don't wanna be with this girl?!
Thanks!

 

Hey girlie, wait out the week and explain to your teacher that it's not working out. See how it goes and give it a fair chance before trying to switch. If she continues to be rude then tell your teacher that you don't get along with her and can't share a locker with her.
