LADY QUESTIONS ABOUT LADY THINGS

Hello Ladies, I was wondering if anyone else go's through what I go through ummmm, about once a month if you know what I mean. I have the most heart ranching cravings for everything that is suppose to make me dump like chocolate, chocolate, and more chocolate during this time. Here's the thing I don't dump at all. If anything I get a little gas here and there but I don't dump what I crave. Anyone else experience these things or is it just mua?

Same here. About 2 weeks before my cycle starts, I just want to eat anything and everything I can. Sadly I don't dump much on sugar. I polished off 2 medium sized bags of m&m's last week and a few packages of mini candy bars. It's hard and I'm working on nipping this in the bud before I start gaining. Your not alone.

I can totally relate to this. I feel like I can not get full a few weeks before that time. I have always been able to eat sweets, but can limit myself. I dont go overboard on them. I am surrounded at work by chocolate and other sweets ever day (which is usually my own fault cuz I stock the candy dishes)....and it makes everyone else around me cranky sometimes too cuz they dont have any self control either. I try to eat more protein and drink lots of water and other liquids to help curb my cravings. For the first time since my surgery a year ago, I gained weight last week. almost 7 lbs. Scared the crap out of me. I am back down now to where I was before that bad week, but its enough to shock you, beleive me. I wanted to be down to 220 by my birthday on the 7th of next month, so I have 6 more lbs to lose in the next 15 days and my time of the month is coming....keep your fingers crossed for me. Keep up the great work. Anita B 420/226/220 soon

Hey Anita, Knowing that you could always eat sweets is also a releif b/c I am the same way. And that candy dish at work , ME TOO. But anyway you look great and you keep up the good work too!

Hey lady's it is so good to know that I am not alone, now I can come out of the dark with my monthly addiction lol! No really I appreciate your response and I hope that it gets easier for you and I to resist those nasty cravings. Maybe every time this time of the month comes. We can go on a workout spree and eat lots of protein shakes to make us full and curve the sweet tooth. Easier said than done huh.lol
