Alrighty, so discretion advised: 


I have been SO hungry the last few days, and I've been eating a lot more.  I have also been stuck at 283 for the last week.  I believe my TOM is coming up next week, could that have anything to do with it?

I am always rediculously hungry around my TOM. I'm absolutely starving for a few days, and then I'm back to normal. I also stall out a little bit.

So, yes, this could have everything to do with your TOM. I usually try to drink more water instead of going for a snack. But, hey, sometimes you just gotta give in to a craving or two.

Crazily enough, sometimes eating more helps me break stalls. Up the calories, and the pounds come off. Wierd, but effective for me.

Great question. I was wondering the same thing. I find myself snacking (which I never do) the week before my TOM. I also find myself experimenting with foods I shouldn't be! For example, a Chips Ahoy cookie...am I insane!? lol

I haven't thought about that! I am only on the semi-solid food stage, still, and beef is a no no for .. although when I was in stage 1, pureed beef made me insanely sick.  I know there is turkey jerky around here, I wonder if I chewed really well if that would be ok?

Yes, I always get hungry during my TOM.  It's frustrating but for some reason that's also when I lose the most weight....weird.
