That makes a lot of sense to me. I feel almost exactly that way during my cycle.

I thought it was extremely weird how one day my pants fit great and I feel as though I am losing a bit of weight, then all of a sudden I'm a chobbo and my pants are hardly wearable. It happened with in a few days.

I also eat a lot during this time....so much I can get sick.

I mentioned this at my therapy appointment this morning and they prescribed some meds to try out. I really hope it has some affect because feeling like this is almost intolerable

Thanks a lot for that analysis on "the dreaded cycle", it fits the definition almost perfectly.

Makes soooo much sense.....almost to much sense.
