That's what I thought too but I'm not due to get my period for another 1.5 week at least. Does make sense that it's hormonal though...but I'm glad that I'm not the only one. I've eaten so much today and I'm still hungry!!

I've had some days where I can't seem to eat enough. Doesn't seem to happen as much as it used to.
I'm going to monitor this better so I know when it happens...I usually eat a lot more fish but I haven't been for the last little while...but I get like this even when I do it eat regularly.
