I Think My Tummy Has A Cycle...not Even Kidding

So over the last couple of months I have noticed that I have 1 week each month that I could LITERALLY eat everything in sight...and then then next few weeks everytime I eat I either get queesy or super full, super fast..like doing good to get in a cheese stick full...

anyone else had this happen?

    I have the same cycle. I am betting it has something to do with hormones though... It is the same week (about 1/2 to my TOM) and the same week that I bloat... This week is the week. I am never hungry

I have that same problem too. I eat but get full fast.. i get nauseated. I think my mind playing games on.me.

I just want to be drinking fruty drinks.

I have stomachaches too.

I guess u not the only One. Im having surgery on Aug.

Best wishes..

I wish I had days like that now at 9 months out. in the beginning, there were days like that. I have head hunger now and it really bothers me. I get a hamburger and I want to eat it all. But I can't, thank you sleeve. My emotions get the best of me at times. :)

I have the same cycle. I am betting it has something to do with hormones though... It is the same week (about 1/2 to my TOM) and the same week that I bloat... This week is the week. I am never hungry but my mind wants me to eat and I can eat much more that week. I am almost 5 months out...

I have noticed this to! I thought I was crazy. I usually get full fast and never graze but this week I feel like I can eat eat eat! I have a full feeling but want to keep eating!

Same exact thing with me. I know my stomach size doesn't change but my appetite sure does.

Yay! So glad that I am not the only one! I notice that the week before is when I get that "cookie monster" urge for everything in sight. Then the next three weeks I can barely eat..and that is when I drop my weight...I need to learn to control it...I downed my calorie goal on mfp...and I am being more diligent about logging everything...see if that changes everything.

Omg.... I am back in the cycle! I can't stop eating! I watch what I am eating but my stomach is like.... Hello...feed me!!!! Ugh.

And I just looked back at my last post about this and it is the same time last month!!!! definitely a cycle

Oh noooo! I am post menopausal. I do not want to think about monthly hunger periods.

I feel the week leading up to my period I want to eat a lot more and can actually do it. I tend to graze more and go for carbs. Not good... It's a struggle.

Vsginnj.... To funny!

Kmbr.... Me too! I must be nearing the end of this cycle because the craving for the carbs is alot less! Ugh. I had a hysterectomy years ago so I didn't put two and two together but it is crazy! I don't like it!

Yep, I am there with y'all. I can't even work I am starving but full so fast. I eat whatever is on sight since I have to gain anyway
