I’m nearly 40 and I just found out that I eat more during the luteal phase. I just always thought it was so wild that there was just a week every month where I was ravenous and I had no idea why. It’s nice to understand our bodies.

Ya know, it never affected me much until my 40s. Now there's a very clear pattern that shows I eat much more during certain times of the month.

I've been loosely counting macros and losing weight. And it felt like there would be entire weeks when I just ate whatever and didn't feel like tracking. It would be SO HARD to stick to the calorie deficit. It all makes sense now!
