Yes, actually. It figures that after nearly working myself to death and getting almost killed by Greed, my body adjusted to the monster changes.
Although I think there's a middleman: body mass. Frankly, at least for the type of werebear I've been turning into, I was just too dang scrawny to support the changes. The sheer amount of bodily trauma I subjected myself to reminded my body that I needed to enter hibernation soon to heal, and thus I started the process of preparing for hibernation through hyperphagia.
Or, in simple terms: I've been eating more than twenty thousand calories a day for the past few weeks and have gained a significant amount of weight as a result. Four to five pounds a day. Don't worry, it's apparently quite normal for bears. At least this adjustment is a lot more forgiving than the agony of my previous transformations.
