Dear Forum,
I have just read a post on another forum about women and fat loss during menstruation. I have two questions.
1) How much will a womans weight fluctuate during her period.Is there any valid research done on this subject ?
2) Is it true a woman should perform more cardio vascular exercise during mestruation as she will burn a greater amount of fat than when she is not ovulating?
I look forward to your answers.

Hi there, the weight gain menstruation is actually fluid gain. It is necessary to cut down on carbohydrates; one ounce of carb attracts 4 times its own weight in water. Protein is fine, no restriction.
