Loestrin 24 Fe & migrains

I too just started taking Loestrin 24. I couldn't figure out for awhile why my appetite (for really unhealthy food) has increased lately. Also, I have had less energy (great combination, huh?) and have been really moody lately. I work out about 4 times per week (really hard weight training and cardio) but am DEFINITELY gaining weight because of my increased appetite, I am on my first week of my second pack of pills. I am wondering, is the moodiness, increased appetite and low energy going to go away? I am enjoying that I haven't had a period. I was on Ortho Tricyclen Lo and was having breakthrough bleeding HALF the month! YUCK! Also, I have been having A LOT of headaches since I started the Loestrin24. PLEASE someone let me know, will I feel "normal" soon???
Answers:

This is my 6 month on Loestrin FE 24. Was gonna switch but I fiqured I'd give it at least another month since I got on the scale and I now weigh 158 instead of 165
I had a migraine for the first time on this pill this month. I finally got my period on the day that I started my new pack.

Other than this migriane I've been migraine free for 5 months on this pill. I think the migraine stemmed from me finally bleeding, since last month I didn't have a period I got a double whammy.
I never had and and do 2 hours of cardio.

Sadly I can't tell you if and when your pains will go away. It's trial and error. 3 months is the required amount of time from my doctor to get use to a pill. He claims that's how long it takes.
