I'm on a medication (adderall) where one of the side effects includes loss of appetite, and I SWEAR to you that this does nothing for me when i'm approaching my period!. One thing that seems to help a little is chewing gum!.
Honestly!. I go through a pack of gum a day just trying to avoid the munchies!. It helps--- It won't work miracles or anything, but it definitely keeps me from eating absolutely everything that isn't nailed down!.
I go through a 60-piece container thing of Orbit Bubblemint gum about every 4 days!. Yeah!. That's a lot of gum!. But it also keeps me from biting my nails, lol!.
So, yeah!. It's not the cramps or even the bloating that kills me, it's the binge eating--- and I've been somewhat able to keep it in check!. Hope this helps! Www@Answer-Health@Com

I used to think this happened only to me!. I could honestly eat the whole house right before my period and on the days of my period i would barely eat anything!. I try to stock up with healthier good tasting foods!. such as fruits and vegetables!.!.but I know that it's really easy to reach for the junk foods, so I would try and work out during the week that i'm eating more and even it out a little!. don't worry though!.!.you aren't alone, plus it's a tiring thing to have a period so don't go too hard on yourself food wise!.

Don't have any junky foods in the house during that part of your cycle!. I eat in my sleep so I just don't buy junk food very much!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
