Does anyone else relax their diet during their period?

I’m very strict for the rest of the month, but as soon as i know or feel my period starting my diet goes to pot for a couple of days and i just eat bread and chocolate!!

Please tell me I’m not the only one!!

I’m pregnant at the moment, but I definitely ate whatever I wanted when I was on my period. Chocolate, crisps, burgers… I didn’t care. I listened to the cravings and I gave in.
I think if I had not then my periods would be worse. It’s hell as I have terrible cramps and heavy bleeding and the only good part is the food.

I have two days a month where I just crave carbs and am ravenous. Will end up having around 2-300 cals extra each of those days which never does any harm. Lost almost 4 stone doing this so happy with that. Don’t use it as a license to go crazy but have a more relaxed approach during that time
