For someone like me who cannot eat much anymore, obviously lol I am so hungry on my cycle. It’s crazy.

Saturday was crazyyyyyy for me. I went off my rocker, I snacked and grazed all day. I started my period Friday even and Saturday I was bitchy and wanted all the food. Sunday I felt like crap almost like a hang over. I didn't track my food, I didn't worry about my Protein, I did work out that morning though, but still No bueno, but I am back on track and just let that day be. However these last two or three periods have been me fighting back eating the whole house but this last one I lost the battle LOL

If you guys aren’t planning children now consider the IUD. I got the Mirena and I have no clue why I waited this long. No more periods for me. I spotted once in a while for a couple of months and nothing since. No more emotional rollercoasters or food cravings either. I used to have such heavy bad periods with all of the symptoms and now once In a while when I go pee I see a tiny bit of blood on the tissue but that’s it. No cramps, cravings, fatigue, moodiness, none of it. It’s amazing. I’m not sure if there are risks with getting it if you are planning children in the future because I’m past that so I would definitely ask some questions about that but it’s something to think about.

Even at my age, I still have hungry days like a period day. I just allow myself more good healthy foods. There is always a day where I eat very little. At the end of the month my food tracker is always in range of 60 -80 grams of Protein and 1500 calories a day.

I have a tubal litigation so no more babies for me! LOL I have short periods like 2-3days not too heavy, but the sweets cravings is unreal. They never were pre- WLS so I am guessing since I don't indulge its just my body. It does all even out for sure. I allow myself one day and then i'm back at it.

I used the Mirena for years as a contraceptive and it worked great, both times I tried for children I was preggo within 3months so it didn't effect me negatively lol
