    i've been on mfp for 10 weeks and have lost 15 lbs. Still have a looong way to go. i Just finished my period and i have thee sweetest tooth ever! When you crave, just eat it- - - but, limit your portions. That way you dont feel so bad. Then, work out harder the next day. This journey shouldnt be painful for us. Enjoy it! =D

    I always eat fat free vanilla yogurt with Oats & More sprinkled on top. It seems to really help with my sugar cravings. Its still rather filling and good for me too.

    I LOVE these, but they're so high in calories and fat! I like eating the Charms blow pops! They give me the sweet flavor (that lasts for a while), and they're only 60 calories!

    Or sugar free jello with a little bit of whipped cream on the top--except they don't last as long!

    My motto during that time is "In every life a little chocolate must fall..." I usually save a little treat for the end of the day and since I LOVE dark chocolate I usually have something like that on hand. But ONLY during that time as I could eat it all month long :)

    I'm not a lady, but I think it's posted in the wrong topic listing. Can I get a ruling?! LOL! Good luck with everything.

    Would a fruit smoothie help? I crave salty sweet things. My go-to pms snack use to be white chocolate covered pretzels. Mine is coming up soon so I'll have to figure this out soon haha. Maybe a bit of dark chocolate? That's a bit healthier.

    I like the Orville mini bags of popcorn- the kettle corn is sweet and only 100 calories a bsg. It's a satisfying snack if I don't have to share :)

    Mix a scoop of whey protein into a can of diet soda. Very satisfying.

    I just discovered Vitatops by Vitamuffins. They're "muffin tops" that you find in the freezer section. 100 calories, fiber, protein - can't go wrong with that! I love the Deep Chocolate ones right now.

    I am in the same boat this week! I ate 3 sugar free puddings today which helped satisfy me, although a half bag of dove chocolates would have been my first choice...lol (But no longer!) :-)

    I usually buy my favorite kind of ice cream this time of the month....Ben and Jerry's and portion it out for a few days. I love it so I'm not going to just not ever have it especially this time of the month when I crave it most. Also I usually buy Special K protien bars for breakfast....the choc. pb ones are sooooo good. Oh and the Fiber One Fudge Chewy bars....YUM and 90 calories!!!!
