I know from my experience that with weightloss and the body going through change etc and trying to find it's balance you may experience changes with your period. If however the pain and flow continue to get worse, be safe and go see a professional - let him know that you are on an eating plan.

Guys going through my first TOM on plan and this cramping is giving me an absolute flogging I have never felt so sick and sore. I almost popped some ibuprofen for it but realized it may affect weight loss - is there anything that I can take? It's only day 1 very light but expecting there will be very heavy down pours judging by these cramps : ( no wonder I have been so snappy and tired last couple of days

Ooo I am so sorry to hear that Brooke and only replying now. I would strongly suggest a hot water bottle as I found the heat sooth my cramping so much! Then I would also highly recommend taking some pain killers so ease the pain as well. Put it in perspective, if you are cramping and its keeping you from having a good sleep its affecting your losses already. Not every one is affected in their weight by the pain killers so go ahead and get relieve you poor lady!! Big hugs!!

All good advice here. I have a different question regarding periods. Does anyone else find their appetite different before during after??
Only reason i ask is that today I have come really close to deviating and the difference in my strength and determination today compared to usual is a little alarming. My period is due wondering if anyone else notices hunger spikes pms? |

Always......I get increase in appetite but more than that cravings for sugar....horrible.
It's a matter of just working your way through it I reckon and using a bit of chromium during these times can help greatly!! |

Yes I get increased hunger the week before.
Meanwhile, I am approaching my 2nd period on plan and ZOMG, the pain. Last night I actually thought I had eaten something bad. My lower back and tummy was just throbbing and today my uterus is having a great time cramping and making me wince! I am planning on heating up my heatpack any second.

It never ceases to amaze me how this program and eating correctly can affect your cycle!
I am on the pill. I should be like clockwork... And going by the actual pills I should start my period on a Monday and end on a Friday. In the past it wouldn't start till the Wednesday and I'd be lucky if i's done by the Saturday. Well all the cramping my uterus has been doing has gotten my cycle starting today! Yay? haha. I'm slightly annoyed cos I wasn't what one would call ready and I thought the cramps were just warnings not HELLO it's time, ready or not! Also... on plan my symptoms are much worse. Like prior to plan it was like nothing was really happening. On plan, I had a migraine on Saturday and have had a headache since then... Not to mention the cramps and the back pain. It just blows my mind that's it's all due to my eating habits!

Oh just chiming in to say with my TOM it came on Day 5 of OP...no warnings no cramps just turned up, normally off plan I would get little niggles and some spotting, but because I am back OP wow...I think I am having a total TOM clear-out...sorry if TMI, but this just started so full-on!
I am kind of yay about TOm tho...being OP makes me wonder about the correlation between hormones and food too...I didn't realise my body was so sensitive! now i do!

I got TOM naturally for the first time in over a year 4 weeks into my program! so stoked. I barely felt any pain either so I was in complete shock when I got it.. usually it's excruciating (PCOS related I suppose) even when I got it because it was forced by the pill
If it was on time I would have got it a week ago.. i've been getting slight niggles as if I was going to get it.. so fingers crossed! I'm pretty sure I'm ovulating on time though? any other PCOSers got any info?? |

PCOS Here, my TOM hasn't been as painful when I am on plan compared to not on plan. It is regular when I am on plan and totally non-existent off plan.
I have random wee hairs that pop up from PCOS, the growth of them comes to almost a complete halt when on plan also. being OP has a miraculous effect on my body stuff! xoxo

I'm glad I found this thread! I have always been regular, 3-4 days and moderate pain. Last month, holy moley! I was in extreme pain, snarling at everyone like a rabid beast and I had a heavy flow for 3 weeks!!! 3 weeks! I won't even go into the hunger I experienced!
I am due again and I am scared! LOL |

Have you experience to be delayed for more than 2 weeks and counting during Cohens? I'm usually regular but as I reach my Cohen's goal weight, my period hasn't came yet. Totally weird because there's no chance of me to get pregnant though.

Trishie darling, if you are getting really worried then you should go see your Doctor. Just to be on the safe side in case there is something else going on. I personally haven't had any issue like this, I have been a few days late though, but they always arrive. I hope all is ok with you.
Hugs Andie 😉
