Title: Annoying bloat...
Post by: 20032003 on March 01, 2016, 07:29:08 PM

Yes, I have gained weight too, but am wondering if anyone has noticed bloating around their hip area? Stomach, legs, etc I have had before. Common during PMS for me. But the hips?! I feel like I can barely zip my jacket some days...

Yes, you describe the sensation perfectly!! Like the waist is higher up. Sooo annoying...  >:(

yes. Been there and squeezed into the t-shirt. It's not weight gain so much as weight redistribution- my belly and breasts are bloated and my legs are like spelks.
