    Hmm. I didn't even think about this. When I was smaller I had the easiest periods in the world. No cramping, like two days of lightness, done! Now that I'm heavier things can be terrible! I figured it was me getting older..but my weight may have something to do with it. Thanks for the insight!

    Yes!! Working out and eating right does make a difference in the cramps and such!
    Growing up my mom was super thin and a big time runner, she said often she wouldnt even get a period! Ive never been that lucky! LOL

    it's a good feeling hey.

    I find mine are shorter and lighter now, which is a good thing.
