Losing your period

[Kiittee]

Yeah, just enjoy it while you can. When I get lean (not freaky lean) my period stops. Not having my period spoiled me. I do NOT want one anymore. Im usually not satisfied with my bodyfat until this occurs.

At about what % of bf was it that you ladies stopped getting your period?? Just curious....

I stopped getting mine pretty high bf 20 % - ??
went down to 8% yikes...
went back up to 25% and did not get it back until then.

I think everybody is different. My mother told me she stopped getting hers when she joined NutriSystem or something like that when she was my age (22) and was eating 800 calories a day.

So.....

I stopped getting it around 12% bf. I have to get pretty small. I'm naturally small. 5'8" 134 when not exercising or dieting. I naturally have softer legs, YUKK!!!

To MissChris...I too have experienced the same thing--PMS without the "m". I think I was worried that it was an excuse I would make in my head to justify excessive crankiness, unexplicable acne, chocolate cravings. But no, I think there is something to what you said; how our bodies go thru a cycle of change whether we shed the lining or not.
