Default TOM finally hit and.........

I feel ABSOLUTELY <b>NO</b> need to eat! Now a day ago, I felt the intense urge to eat every carby thing in the house, every meaty thing in the house, oh might as well admit, I wanted to eat EVERYTHING I could get my hands on! Thank goodness I had tonsilitis to keep me from eating too many bad things ( I had my milkshake moment of weakness though). I felt this insane urge to gobble everything for 2 weeks prior to my TOM. Nobody here, or my doctor has given me any reason why I experience these cravings. I'm talking these are fanatical, pregnant woman feeding frenzie cravings, I feel like I need to tie myself to the bed sometimes to keep away from my hubbies pecan sandies cookies(he has taken to hiding them somewhere in the house, bless him).

It seems that I don't even start my TOM until my body has reached some unknown degree of caloric/carb/who knows intake(I am never regular, and I envy women who can nail to the day and almost the time when they are going to start, with me its always a surprise ), because instantly when I start, all the desire to eat goes with it. I swear I must gain 10 pounds every month from this, even on LC. I certainly haven't been able to lose anything. Is there a scientific explanation....or something I am missing that I can take for this? I already take a good multi vitamin, calcium, B-6, Flax seed oil, ect. ARG!!!! *cries*
