Yes, that happens to me also.The rest of the month month is so different but beginning a week before my period Im an animal! I eat so much. And its like Im starving I just wolf everythng down..I feel lik e I gained five ponds this week. Im going to see if I exercise more, if that will help. I havent purged in years but this PMS eating doess bum me out and i dont want to start again...Im glad you brought this up- Im going to google it right now. Usually what I do is just eat and then lose it the following week because I feel so big and bloated....If I find a web site or something Ill post it.. In the mean time Im going to try to exercise instead of eating...
