    Not to worry! I don't think anything is really TMI on this forum. Since joining, I've heard about everything from periods & libido to pee, poo, and farts! I think it's great that a community exists where people feel comfortable asking questions and talking about their experiences in... well... everything!

  • Feeling blah and munchy from TOM. I hate that the form of BC that I use messes with my cycle so much -- sometimes the symptoms from TOM stick around for 3 weeks! I ate like crazy last night - on plan food, but still ate like crazy. I ended with sf jello and that kind of hit the spot for me so I am making more today and hopefully that can nip it in the bud early

    Shelf, how do you make your falafel? I'm considering making sweet potato falafel when I get on phase 2 again.

    3: small amount of leftover chicken tikka masala (1/2 c.) over spinach; black bean burger w/ some avocado and pico

    5: green chili turkey burger (sans bun) on a bed of spinach, cut cucumbers, peppers and celery
    6: sf jello (really hits the craving spot for me)

    exercise: 60 min. pilates, 30 min. moderate cardio, abs circuit
