Eating during menstration

Hello, sorry to be so blunt but does anyone else have problems eating around their time of the month?? Ive noticed for a few days before and during i am unable to eat or anything i do manage to get down comes back up with a load of slime........Am i just imagining it ????

I notice that I usually feel a lot more bloated and crampy around that time - and I do seem to be able to eat a lot less....I have had the ablasion surgery so I don't have much of a period, but I still get the bloated feeling and hormonal swings. Joys of being a woman!

Nope I have the same problem..as a matter of fact dealing with it now..Doc said to just get down liquids/shakes during this time.

It's because of the Fluid retention, it causes the band to swelling which in turn tightens the band

The band does not swell. Your body does, which makes the band feel tighter than usual.

I'm feeling mine coming on and definitely can feel a change in my band (or rather, in my Fluid levels which affects the band). While I'm normally yellow-to-greenish, I'm certainly more restricted now, which makes me wonder whether I should get a fill as planned in 2 weeks. Has anyone ever crossed the green/red boundary because of their TOM?
