MOOOOOODY! ugh!

[alegnahas3]

Hi, I am on the 2nd day of my extended induction. I only lost 5lbs on my (clean) induction so I know I have some resistance. anyway... I was just wondering if anyone else has dealt with mood swings and such during induction? I hate feeling this way and am feeling and dealing with irritability and low frustration levels for the last 3 days (its like really bad PMS). what could be going on that would cause this?

Hi
Congratulations on those 5 pounds already dropped!!

How much in total did you want to lose?

[alegnahas3]

I need to lose a total of 67 lbs to be at my "healthy weight". So I just need to lose 5 lbs 12 more times!

he he he

Since estrogen is stored in fat, sometimes when we burn fat we release estrogen into our system and that can make us 'cranky'!

How old are you? Is it your time of month to have PMS?

[alegnahas3]

I feel better today. I'm 33 years old and its not "that time". oh well, one of those days I was in bed until after 1pm with a HORRIBLE headache. Maybe I am/was just super addicted to carbs/sugar and my body was rebelling for a few days. I am a total junk food binger - serious problem. thanks!
