Is anyone else absolutely RAVENOUS during their luteal phase? Or am I just a freak? And by "freak," I mean that I would eat greasy fries with dirt covered fingers and lick 'em clean if caught without food during this time.* I actually get shaky, desperate and eventually faint. Maybe I'm just a fancy woman who gets the vapors?
*Not that I've ever actually DONE this of course... at least not in that exact way.
**I contemplated making a label for this one that read FOOOOOOOOOOD, instead of just food. I resisted.

Nah...not a freak at all! You are completely normal. Didn't you know that?
Yes, totally. In fact for like 2 years I mistook it for a "pg symptom". :/
I LOVE IT!
No, I eat as much as possible at ALL times. :)
And hey, your word verification is calling me a goof. How rude.
I think I read some were that during the week before AF your body actually burns up to 300 extra calories a day and that is part of the hunger thing.
But yeah. There are some days I am so ravenous it is quite embarrassing. I have plowed through a family sized order of greasy Chinese by myself.
Glad I have some support in this. ;-)
Jen - I will have words with my comment verification.
An Older Version - Good to know!!! I knew the progesterone had to up stuff quite a bit, but I had never heard that little tidbit! In fact, right now I am shaking I'm so hungry even though I just downed an apple and peanut butter and 5 kashi crackers with a bite sized dark chocolate bar (That is REALLY good together btw) while waiting on my fries. sigh.
oh, and chinese... now I WANT some! So mean! :)
