Ladies - Eating More As Menstrual Cycle Approaches?

Hi ladies, It seems that during the 3-4 days before my menstrual cycle approaches, my pouch is bigger.  I seem to be able to eat more than normal.  Example - for dinner last night I made ground chicken burgers.  Normally, I eat one with a slice of FF cheese.  Last night, I ate 1.5 and 2 teaspoons of string beans.   I journal what I eat each day, so in looking back through my journals this morning, I can see the pattern, each month since August.  I just wondered if this was/has happened to anyone else.  And if so, does anyone know why?  My losses are consistent and I feel good, so I'm not worried, just curious. Thanks! Taya

i don't have a pouch but yes i do tend to be hungrier that week beforehand... Darn hormones....

Ugh!  I knew it couldn't just be me!

I saw your post and wanted to say hi.  Hope your Christmas was lovely and I love your new hair cut!  Looks good!!

Hey lady!  All is well.  Thanks!  I'll talk to you soon!

I eat more "it" approaches, I crave the carbs horribly!  I keep hershey kisses around and I have 1-3 every day during that week so I am not evil to people..lol

You too?  *lol*  The bags of mini Twix call my name during that time.  And it doesn't help that I don't dump from sugar.
