Try to weigh every single day for several months while you're not doing and plot it against your cycle days. You might be in for a surprise .. neary everyone 'knows' about water retention pre-TOM but not everyone is aware about mid-cycle gains.. now, several of us never see that happening so it is very individual.
Even apart from this , it just pays off to track daily weight changes for several months and see what causes a spike and what not. Salt doesn't for me, not even tons of salt. But give me fiber , esp. beans etc. and I'll blow up. Gluten does the same.. just don't eat much of it anymore..
