Well, no, I'm not...and I'm not suggesting I could ever be...but wow o wow am I having strong food cravings at the moment. Specifically blue vein cheese and dark chocolate! Not necessarily at the same time, and not every day, but when I get the craving I start to feel a quite agitated until I can sate it. It'll probably stop of it's own accord but I find it weird. I wonder if this is what pregnant women feel sometimes. Anyone else get strong food cravings?
That's actually probably the hormones more than anything. Since I'm still pre-T, I still have my female hormones and cravings are terrible.
Probably due to the weather. Got the munchies myself.
Yeah. Usually junk food unfortunately. lol. But then I always have even before tweeking my hormones.
Cereal and bacon cheese burgers. Weird right? I usually go with the cereal since well indulging that a few nights a week at least won't pack on the pounds.
I was wondering myself if its the hormones because I'm having a little trouble controlling .
I've had the same. I've been wanting to chow down on really really spicy food for the last few weeks!
When I have my progesterone shot it takes about 90 minutes before chocolate cravings completely overtake me. The next one is next Saturday :)
Full strength HRT + progesterone = mad hunger urges!!!!
I was severely raiding people's candy dishes at work for chocolate and I decided that was eventually going to start rumors so I had to lay in my own bags of candy for when the chocolate urge hits, which is now pretty much every dang day :D
I want it all - pizza, burgers, steaks.... you name it, I'll eat it. I even broke down the other day and had vegan which I had never tried before and it was good.
The good thing is that the weight I'm gaining is now going to all of the right places. I always had a nice butt but now it's even.... ummmmm.... nicer :) ..... and my boobs have taken notice of the food too. I used to be able to wear dark t-shirts but I noticed this week those are now off the table. I have no idea what I'm going to wear when it gets warmer this summer if I still haven't come out yet :-\
Hi,
Again as each person is different and how our own hormones work plus others on synthic meds , myself my own hormones will change at different times, and no i dont have my own womb so cant go that road, though i know having both sets of hormones will do things and some changes not all the time and not like theres a monthly or weekly detail .
What does happen is when my body needs something ill know so not allways choc'e could be Honey or a suger top up then it may be marmite, any way .
...noeleena...
After reading about you going to the movies with your male friend the other day my first reaction when I saw this topic was "No waaaay"! ;D
Chocolate peanut butter is my personal Kryponite. :)
Mine is Reese's Peanut butter cups.... YUM... And I haven't even started HRT yet... When I actually do, I am really going to have to watch that one... Good Lord hide the car keys... LOL
Good quality chocolate right now my flavor of the month is orange pastels.
Noticing

That would've really been some "wham, bam, thank you ma'am" if it were the case!?!
That's because chocolate cures everything
When my wife was pregnant it was corn dogs at 330 am in SNOW STORM ... ( kids are grown up now ) Mines like chocolate for sure ..oh and big yogurt fan now .
Happens to me when my prolactin levels peak once a month. Get cravings for chinese food and fried shrimp like its my destiny.
Kosher dill spears ! buy them by the gallon at Wal Mart and of course 72% dark chocolate ! Plus about anything else I can catch and eat before it eats me.

Thats been the one consistent taste change I've had. I really like spicy food and peppers now.
I am sure us mtf girls have cycles like cis-girls do.. Ok we don't have the physical periods for obvious reasons.
Me I get cravings around once a month for chocolate.. I just want to stuff myself.. I try to resist as I don't want to put on on weight..
Ever since I started hormones i'm almost in insatiable. Yet i'm still losing weigth.
mmmmmmm White chocolate *drools*
