I thought about your post when I went to the gynecologist yesterday for my yearly exam and I asked him why I was always so hungry a day or two before my period starts. He says it is, for some women, a way to increase nutrition prior to blood loss. His suggestions for the extra food included fruit, high protein (but low fat) foods.
Guess the fact that I want hundreds of hershey kisses doesn't compute there!!!!!
I think it is interesting that one of my sister's completely loses her appetite right before her period. HMMMMM...
