Hormones, aren't they a mysterious thing?

So after having my last baby, and at the same time getting my tubes tied, I realized I had some rather unfortunate side effects. Some awful ones in my opinion. To be blunt, for the first time in my life I had to find where the KY jelly is located in the grocery store. Or as my husband and I call it, I love Hawaii. (that is another story, if you want to hear it let me know, but since no one reads this, I guess I don't need to worry about that)  Anyway, I was also having head aches, and dizzy spells, and suffered from more migraines, which just stunk. I even went to see a dr about it, not knowing that a tubal could cause all of these issues.  But before we did anything too crazy about it, like getting it reversed we decided to wait it out until I was done nursing my youngest.  Because that also messes with your hormones as well.

Well I don't know what happened, or what I did different, or if it was just a matter of time, but some of these side effects seem to have gone away.  I realized it one day out of the blue when I was really hungry.  Like I hadn't eaten in weeks. I couldn't stop eating, and I knew I was full. Also the thought of being with my husband didn't make me shiver in the wrong way.  I am happy for the change, don't get me wrong, and since we have misplaced the I love Hawaii, and haven't needed to find it, I am even happier. But at the same time, it makes me ponder just how strong and effective hormones are.

Also, why do they make me so hungry now?  I had thought  I was doing so much better on my new way of eating, that food had lost it control over me.  But that is now out the window and seems to be super hard to follow. I am hungry all the time, and horny all the time. I need them to maybe level off. That way overeating wouldn't be so much of a struggle and so I don't feel so frustrated everyday.  Also I am back to having a hard time getting to sleep.  Maybe I should do some research, but I am afraid of what I might find. Maybe I should just wait a few more weeks, and things will swing back the other way.  Sure I won't want to do it, but I also won't want to eat everything in the fridge either.  Which would you prefer, not having enjoyable sex or having control over your eating habits?  Satisfied or skinny?
