My first question to you would be this: are you cutting certain foods out of your eating plan completely? If you are, this is a bad idea simply because you will binge on them later. You need to have cheat meals (or cheat snacks) every now and then so you don't binge later. This was tremendously helpful for me when I was starting out, and know many other women who feel the same way.

If you currently do allow yourself certain foods here and there, then my next guess would just be that your body has gotten used to the eating plan you have been using for the past 6 months. Your eating plan needs to be switched up just like your exercise regime otherwise your body just plateaus. A lot of times when we binge on certain things, or crave certain things, it's because our body is telling us it needs those things and it's not getting them. This is another reason to revamp your eating plan. See what's missing and fix it. And on top of that, if you are gaining muscle mass, then yes you more than likely do need more calories, which again, means revamping your plan.

If you don't do it already, keep a food journal. Write down what you eat, when you eat it, and how much. It'll help you see what changes need to be made.
