Default Glucophage and appetite increase?

Hi! I'm new to the forums and pretty new to PCOS in general.
I was officially diagnoised with PCOS last summer, and since then I've been trying to learn more about it.
My endo started me with glucophage about 3 weeks ago, I started at 500mg at dinner and now I'm at 1000mg at dinner.
Since I've started taking the medicine I have noticed that I'm not as tired during the day and that I'm not as hungry all the time.
From what I've read that seems to be pretty normal.
However for the past couple of days my appetite has increased pretty signifigantly from what I have had over the past couple of weeks.
Has anyone else experienced this?
Could it be I've been eating to many carbs?
Are there really specific foods I should avoid?

Thanks in advance.

I am taking 500 mg gluco with breakfast and 1000mg with dinner, and I only have a problem controlling my appetitie right before I start a period. May not be the same for you, but that is what I usually do.
