Oh, don't worry. It's definitely normal. I feel the same way, before, and during. I hate the feeling, but I get it and its normal. ♥

Okay okay: it's not technically a "stupid question," ;) but the fact that you seem to already know the answer does make me wonder why you're asking...
I also am curious what you think "feeling bloated" means. Because if "feeling fat" and "feeling bloated" are different enough feelings to merit a question asking for an explanation, then millions of women have been calling what they feel every month by the wrong adjective!
"Bloated: adj. abnormally distended especially by fluids or gas."
What you're feeling is bloating. And being more hungry than usual is normal and common. You're right to "hold back" a bit on eating right now, but not because you feel too fat to eat so much. A slightly more healthy and helpful reason to hold back a bit right now is because, and you nailed it, you're feeling hungrier than you usually do, and you're right to identify that that is not reason enough to eat more than you usually do because that extra hunger is period based, not activity based.
Maintain your normal eating habits (keep 'em healthy, avoid excess salt, and don't try to drown out the hunger with too much water!!), and you'll ride out the week ending right back at the weight you were when your period started.

No it's not stupid question lol. It's normal..it's your hormones, all girls feel that way..why do you think super skinny girls are always like "OMG I am so effin fat!!" Dont worry..and you're always gonna have cravings to eat when you're on or near getting your period...it's ok to fall for some of them but try not to eat too much or you will gain weight. Good luck! ♥ caitie
