Curious.....

Yes it's that time....it should be within next week I believe and i know the week before is like food HELL! I can not control anything!

yes - and I am convinced that bingeing before TOM is somehow darwinish as well.  I find that one tough to get around.... my best guess is that it has to do with the luteal phase, during which our bodies behave as if we are pregnant during those 11 days or so after ovulation, until they get the signal for menses to begin. If the body believes it is pregnant, maybe it is beginning to 'stock up' to prepare for added demands on the body.... and then when the hormone levels drop and menses begins the cravings stop. Of course the common question is WHY our bodies would do this to us every month...  well the truth is that historically speaking it has only been in the last century that women mensturated monthly.  Before that most women were pregnant or breastfeeding most of their adult lives, therefore in the absence of a current pregnancy or breastfeeding child the body would assume there was a good chance of pregnancy... feel free to dispute my theroy if you wi**** is only my musings...
