Meganelizabetho Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 When I'm PMSing I'm ALWAYS more hungry. It's not specifically a need to snack, and it's not specifically cravings, I just generally need larger portions. Is eating larger portion sizes going to ruin my w30? Breakfast this morning was slightly on the large side for me Yam home fries, bacon, microgreens, two eggs.... I don't know whether to follow my instincts and eat a little extra for the next few days, or whether I should try to stay more strict and assume that I'll adjust? Link to comment
Krista Billows Rodriguez Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Looks good to me, eat until you're satisfied, do not count calories or worry about portion sizes. The W30 is about revamping your relationship with food, food is fuel, it should nourish your body and make you feel content and happy. Frankly my breakfast is HUGE but it lasts me from 6:30 until 1:00 when I have lunch and it works for me. During the lovely pms time you will see a lot more sweet potato in every meal, it makes me happy, I don't bite anyone's head off, it's a win-win for my whole family I think in general we've been tuned out to our bodies for such a long time, now is your time to tune in and listen, enjoy it!

Kirsteen Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 It certainly doesn't look too large to me. In fact it looks delicious and I've been known to have 3 eggs at breakfast. Seriously you should not need to be hungry on a W30 so if your body wants more food, give it more food as long as it's compliant and fits the templates. Frankly I want this for breakfast tomorrow Link to comment
stephanie_0 Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 This looks like a regular meal for me haha... Too funny though cause I JUST finished complaining to my fiancé that the time of the month monster wants to eat everything in site! Link to comment

Meganelizabetho Posted March 13, 2013 Author Share Posted March 13, 2013 So my period was scheduled to start today and it hasn't, but let me tell you ladies, I'm STARVING. My dinner was the size of two meals for me. Compliant, but huge. I feel like a paleomonster... Which I suppose would be a dinosaur... Link to comment
GoJo09 Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Oh wow, my breakfast is way bigger than that! Although, I have been having trouble finishing meals the past few days, so maybe I started in my hungry period, and now it's dialing back to normal... Link to comment
