Do you increase your net calories the days leading up to or during your period? If so, by how much?

    No. I don't get hungrier around my period. I sometimes crave chocolate or salty things, but I don't want or need more calories overall, so I just make my cravings fit into my calorie goal.

    Nope. If anything, I have to force myself to eat around that time
