Does anyone else find it WAY harder to control their urges and cravings during their TOM?? Back in my heavy weight days, I always said that I binged more during TOM, but I think in the back of my head I always scoffed at myself for making an(other) excuse. But I don't know what's been up with me the past few days... I've been pretty rock solid on myself and my determination and have been pretty good and true (and honestly had not much a prob with it!!) the past month or two... but this TOM I'm just like... CRAVING carbs and sugary stuff! I rarely cave at work and have things I shouldn't but last night I couldn't say no to myself and had a small bag of chips (the 120 cal size) and immediately ate my chocolate snack for the night. But that still wasn't enough...!! I started craving pasta like hardcore and finally I gave in and ate what I wanted (it was like a ramen bowl) and the headache I'd been having all night and even the little bit of wooziness I was feeling before that (despite eating my fruits and veggies and proteins earlier as WELL as a small carb serving...) went away immediately! I know I shouldn't have had it... but I felt way way better afterwards (that's unusual for me, I don't usually feel sick like that). Stupid TOM.
What's the deal with that, any ideas?? Do any of you have worse cravings during that time? Or is it just mental?
