as kb said, lots of water, reduce your sodium, try to eat really clean... cherries are supposed to be good natural pain relievers, asparagus is supposed to help take excess soduim out of your system... dont know if that's true or not, but hey... they both taste so good once that it wont mater anyways...
best thing to do is make sure you own a couple pairs of pants that are draw string and just adjust as needed, its never as bad as you think!!
(my fiance is ALWAYS laughing at me when i complain about my bloat... he says he can never see the difference... )

This is an ironic post. Today I've finally gotten my period after a 6 month hiatus. I've only had one over the past year. Yeah, it's wonderful not getting it, but I was very freaked out about the possibility of getting osteoperosis from it. Periods are a curse whether you're getting them or not! Now I'm wondering if this will be the Mother of all peroids, since I haven't had any in a while!
My dermotologist told me to get B6 and take it three times a day for water retention-- he told me taking it before/during a period would reduce water retention and lessen acne. Who knows. Good luck!

G-d damn periods!!!""
Water does indeed remove water, I don't know how, but it just does, so go crazy on the water front during that time.
Boy I know how you feel my friend, especially myself being on the BC Pill, you are only 'slim' like two weeks out of the month.
Sometimes ... and only sometimes... dontcha just wish you were a guy!!!
LOL!!!
Celery is good and Parsley is apparently a top diuretic, but it takes like caca!
Hope this helps

I would love to know why this happens. It doesn't matter what i eat so i don't think it's a carbohydrate sensitive thing. I avoid all food combinations around my period thinking that it will someday help but it really doesn't matter when and what i eat, my digestive system just gets completely out of wack.
