How do you handle PMS?

Typically, I'll have a beer. I'll get my wife a bottle of red and some chocolate.

^^^ Rock on. Great sense of self-preservation, providing for her needs as well!

Since my IUD was put in, I don't have menstrual cycles. Now I'm just a biznitch ALL the time. lol

when you want to eat, go for a run.

I am so not a runner. :-) Plus, I can't exactly leave my work to run instead of getting Twizzlers. Although I could have walked instead of lunch. The area's iffy but at noon it's ok.

CHOCOLATE! CHOCOLATE! CHOCOLATE! I'm most likely not helping but that's honestly how my body reacts and it gets so bad to the point where my teeth will hurt, i wonder if there is such a thing as Chocolate Anonymous??

I give my PMS cravings exactly what they want... I find they surrender quietly that way

Yup!

I've found that PMS cravings are a result of nutrient deficiencies for me. Have you considered that you are craving meat because you may need more iron or B Vitamins because your body is using more of them at that time?

For me, I found chocolate cravings were due to low magnesium. I started taking magnesium in pill form and the cravings went away with the added benefit of all the cramps pain went away too.

So I handle it my giving my body what it needs at that time.

That's interesting!
