Hi Ladies please tell me I'm not the only one that has REALLY Bad cravings for every unhealthy fattening food for a whole week before I have my Period! Drives me crazy!!

What do other ladies do about this?

Brownies. For real. I'm about to make some right now for this very reason.
In all seriousness though, either work some kind of treat into your calories for the day/week or run a smaller deficit that week. Periods happen regularly so I feel I have to find a way to manage them that doesn't make me sad about deprivation at a time when I might be more emotional than usual. So, for me? Brownies.

I get them I just try to work them into my calorie goal. Luckily I lean towards salty foods, and I can always go with a 100 calorie bag of buttered microwave popcorn to take care of that (or on weekends I will usually go with potato chips because I tend to have more calories free on the weekend because I sleep in so late my breakfast falls at lunch time).

I'm having this problem now and I really feel like killing myself for giving in to my temptations Hais
