    One word - protein. It'll help those cravings a lot.

    What the lady says! Protein, the No.1 Craving Killer ;)

    When this urge to eat the fridge strikes, I now opt for 6 oz plain low fat yoghurt, 1 serving of chocolate whey protein powder, and (if it has to be REALLY sweet) a packet of Truvia. Mix well and enjoy. It's so filling it'll show the cravings the door.

    CONFESSIONS OF A "TOM" EATING PSYCHO....

    So, after I logged off mfp last night, I was around 70 calories over. Ok, no biggie...figured I'd make up for it today.

    BUT NOOOOooooooooo......it is less than a week before my "TOM", and after I logged out all hell broke loose. Let me add visuals for my little pig fest.

    Ate half a bag of these:

    Ate about this much popcorn:

    The scary part is that I did NOT care. I knew I'd be pissed this morning, but when I start craving CRAP during this time of the month, I'm like a lunatic. I could probably polish off a side of beef without even blinking an eye if the spirit moved me. It's insane, and the sad part is that they have no meds for this impairment...lol. What is wrong with the medical community that they cannot get a handle on hormonal issues AND FIX THEM!!!! (pms talking, just ignore that last rant).

    I'm trying not to take my pms eating binges lightly, but I have no clue how to stop myself. I've tried everything. I am glad that I'm usually able to lose whatever I've gained pretty quickly after the "time" passes, but still I think of how much more I could lose if I could get a handle on it.

    Bloody shame I don't crave fruits and veggies during this time, but rather always something like a box of Twinkies or anything that has been dunked in massive amounts of salt. Arrrgghgghghghghhgh.....frustrating as hell. For the most part, I keep the things I crave out of the house during this time of the month, but I had bought and hid the kisses for my kid's Valentine party. I snuck them out of a cupboard where I'd been hiding them.

    And men, don't even bother addressing this because you have NO clue. Mind over matter does not work...at all.

    WORST OF ALL, I DIDN'T LOG MY *kitten* UP....I simply cannot bring myself to do it.


    If those were HUGS kisses...i'd be so there. i could eat a bag in 1 sitting, if i let myself. crazy addictive.

    "And men, don't even bother addressing this because you have NO clue. Mind over matter does not work...at all. "

    As a woman, I 100% disagree. It really is mind over matter. How do you stop yourself? Just don't do it. It's hard as hell, but obviously not impossible. Stop telling yourself that it is and maybe you'll stop allowing it to happen.

    Absolutely. YouCAN stop yourself.
    If someone held a gun to your head and threatened to shoot of you ate the unhealthy pile would you eat it? Course not.
    PMS is NO excuse for any sort of behaviour

    Are you kidding? If someone held a gun to my head when I was PMS'ing and threatened to shoot me if I at what it was I was craving, I would RIP the gun right out of his hand, shoot him where it counts, shove it down his throat, and eat my chocolate. Then I'd cry.

    So I don't suggest you try this at home.

    LOL.

    Pam
