For women (TMI) I guess men can read too. :)

I get super thirsty during mine. No cravings/excessive hunger to speak of, just want to drink lots and lots of fluids of all kinds.

Yeah, I have the exact opposite problem, TOM hits and i just want to stick my face in a pile of food and leave it there for 5 days.

Yeah this is me too. It was especially hard last month since I had just started eating better. Please tell me it gets better after time:laugh:

Oh man, I wish I had that issue! During TOM, my cravings are the worst! Hopefully, someone can provide some advice for you tho.

No. I am normal during my period except that blood comes out of my vagina.

OMG you bleed??? How long does this go on for? You should seek medical help.

Ditto! I also have this problem when I am generally not feeling well. Most people cant eat when they are sick and all I want is something packed full of flavor.

Do any of you ladies have a hard time eating during that time of the month? I had a really bad period this month and I haven't been able to eat. I was to continue losing weight but like I said I have a hard time eating. What is your advice or solutions?

which reminds me I havnt had mine in awhile hmmm but anyways I always crave dark chocolate which I hate

I usually have "easy, short" periods. But the months I have hard,long ones I never eat and always lose weight that week. The week before is always the toughest for me.

I go off food and just want to laze around. Iv just started mine today and already feel not bothered

Sometimes I have trouble eating and other times I've eaten nearly anything that was in front of me without even realizing it! The only thing i can think of is to stick to a schedule. You have to eat, even if its something small, and if you're on schedule it helps a lot. Also, GENERALLY this is a bad thing, but when I have situations like this, I force myself to eat...by doing something else and going through the motions. Then I've eaten everything.

Sort of the way people sit in front of the tv with a bag of chips. That's what I'll do with something healthy in order to get my calories in. Otherwise I wouldn't get my calories in!

:embarassed:

I haven't had a period for a few months, my wife complains about hers though. but she eats during it because I won't let her have any beer on an empty stomach, I'm so mean

No. I am normal during my period except that blood comes out of my vagina.

WINNING!!

Oh any when I have TOM questions, I use the SEARCH function to see if it's already been asked a gazillion times before.

I have the opposite issue... I can't get enough food.

I typically get so much pain that I will get sick if I consume anything the first few days. I have noticed that my body craves calorie dense foods the week before. I believe my body has learned that I won't be eating anything and therefore stocks up early. Even drinking calories with juices, shakes and whatnot will help. My husband makes me some wicked soups when I am practically bed ridden. So maybe if you were to make some soups that you could freeze and just heat up, I am sure it would make shark week easier.

I had never thought about this before! I eat crazy right before...and then dont want to eat hardly anything during. You pretty much gave me the answer to life right now. :laugh:

mine are the same has this i usually gain weight too but weight goes on very quickly so i think its water

I got a sex change and became a man. No more TOM for me. But I miss my boobs

oh be honest... If you'd had a sex change - you would've kept the boobs.

well i did keep them. they're in a plexiglass cube in my living room.

bwahahahaha! Did you name them?
