Futile Attempt at Trying to Understand Restriction - Need Help!

Some more restriction questions for all my lovelies!

We've already established restriction changes with your cycle...yet I still cannot figure out how it's changing...seems during ovulation I'm tighter...then get looser around my period...

Secondly, I've noticed that when I drink more Water I'm not as restricted...have any of you noticed this?

I really shouldn't be trying to make sense of this because it is likely to drive me batty but I get paranoid when I go from eating 4 bites to being able to eat quite a bit more...

I did hear of one couple that both had the band and they found that they both tended to have more or less restriction on the same days and they attributed it to barometric pressure of the air. (LOL...I almost wrote bariatric pressure!! LOL)

I dunno but it may or may not work, trying to figure out the patterns of restriction fickleness.

Myself, I'm trying to learn to be more Zen about it and not predict it or have expectations about it, but listen to what it tells me and try to cooperate with what it says.

Good luck to you on your journey,

Nette
