PMS cravings... UGH!!!
| Mon, 05-09-2005 - 6:37pm |
I was hoping that after phase one that these type of monthly cravings would be over... but no such luck. I am totally premenopausal right now and not only moody but I am really dying for some chocolate - and not just a little piece of dark chocolate - I want something rich and satisfying... lol :) I hate this time of the month I really do. Normally I would just give in and have a huge bowl of ice cream by now but I am trying so hard to be good. I have had a fudgesicle and a small thing of sf jello with ff cool whip already today but it's just not doing it for me.. How do I get through these next few days??? (the 5 days leading up to my cycle are usually the worst for me....)
HELP!!!!! :)

Lisa,
I understand completely.
Oh, Girl, I TOTALLY understand this! I'm going through the same thing right now. I'm due to start tomorrow, thank goodness, because my chocolate cravings are fierce! FF/SF chocolate pudding is my life-saver. I *know* I probably eat more than I'm supposed to but it's definitely better than the alternative. Also, Bryer's makes a FF/SF chocolate ice cream that is legal (counts toward the 75 calorie/day sweet treats so the serving size is less than 1/2 cup) and pretty good and helps with that chocolate urge.
Good luck-- you're not alone!!!

I don't get cravings for specific foods during PMS, but I find that I am just starving during TOM. It's not SBD related though, because I've always been this way. I plan to be diligent this month to make sure I have enough of the right snacks at my fingertips, because I am totally irrational and will eat whatever I can get my hands on.
