How about losing weight during menstruation?
Weight gain should occur before menstruation, when the estrogen level reaches its peak, and a large amount of excess water is locked in the body, which leads to weight gain, decreased hormone level, menstrual cramps and gradual recovery of weight. Before menstruation, there are often symptoms such as irritability, depression, nausea, edema, increased or decreased appetite.

Menstrual period (day 65438 +0 ~ day 7)

This stage is when the female friend "good friend" comes to visit, about 7 days. At this time, the concentration of estrogen and lutein in the body is very low, and the endometrium begins to shed and bleed. At this time, you will find that your weight begins to drop. Many people think that eating sweets such as chocolate and sweet red bean soup will not make you fat at this time. In fact, the calories of these foods have not changed, and they will not be reduced into calories because of menstrual period. Just because of the "physiological" weight loss at this time, everyone has the illusion that they are not fat. If you eat sweets without restraint during this period, you will still get fat!

(Day 8 to Day 14)

This period is about a week after the end of menstruation. At this time, estrogen in the body begins to secrete in large quantities, while the concentration of lutein is still very low. In addition to the weight of the endometrium before, because the concentration of lutein in the body is very low, it will not leave too much water in the body, so female friends will find that the weight loss is particularly fast. This is a normal physiological phenomenon, but it does not mean "successful weight loss". Many people will lose 1 ~ 2kg from the first day of menstruation to before ovulation, thinking that they have lost weight successfully. However, don't be too happy, because in a few days, after your body enters ovulation, you will find yourself "gaining weight" because of hormones.

Luteal phase (day 15 ~ day 28)

In the second week after menstruation, the secretion of estrogen will drop sharply after reaching a peak. At this time, follicular rupture discharged the eggs, the follicles became hermaphroditic, and the female body officially entered the luteal phase. Estrogen in the body slowly decreased, and lutein began to be secreted in large quantities. At this time, due to the increase of lutein concentration in the body, edema and body fat accumulation began, and the endometrium began to thicken again. Especially a few days before the next menstrual cramp, the body will be obviously edema, some people will begin to have "premenstrual syndrome", and some people will have headaches, bad temper and acne. In addition, during this period, the weight will increase secretly 1 ~ 2 kg.

From the above analysis, we can clearly understand that it is normal for female friends to lose weight 1 ~ 2kg every month during menstrual cycle. Some people will suggest losing weight one week after menstruation, and the effect will be the most significant. However, losing weight is a natural physiological phenomenon, not a real weight loss. Therefore, if you really want to lose weight, you must break the scam of one or two kilograms and really implement "low-calorie balanced diet" and "regular exercise". This principle does not need to be changed because of the menstrual cycle.

But in the luteal phase, because of hormones, appetite will be better. At this time, it is necessary to control diet, strengthen exercise, and prevent weight from not only "physiological" increase, but real weight gain. And in the luteal phase, we should also eat lightly to avoid more serious edema.

Losing weight is a persistent eating habit and will not change because of the physiological cycle; However, the weight change of 1 ~ 2kg in the physiological cycle is "physiological" and is not the result of success or failure in losing weight.
