I never really noticed PMS when I was heavier. I think it's because I always ate whatever I wanted - I never noticed that STARVING feeling that comes for a few days or a week (or more!) every month. I never noticed the bloat either - I was too big to notice!Now, every month like clockwork, I gain 6-10 lbs of water weight, and I get HUNGRY. Sometimes I try to ignore the hunger and stay on track, but often that makes matters worse and I end up eating junk.
This month, I decided if I feel hungry, I'll eat until I'm full, but I need to make sure it's all healthy. I did that yesterday, and I ended up consuming 1600 calories. Not terrible, but 400 over where I want to be.
Today I was up 3 lbs from yesterday. I don't know if it's the food or the bloat, or a somewhat salty dinner I had, but it's not fun.
I'm hoping this doesn't last long, because I don't want to be out at restaurants with my starving self while I'm traveling. It's not a good mix! :)
