    Yes! I don't even bother getting on the scale until I'm done. It takes everything I have to not eat everything in sight.

    I'm such a cliche, LOL...but I get super sensitive/emotional *and* crave sweets during that TOM.

    24 days of the month, I'm fantastic. Four days...I'm a lunatic. It's all good.

    I have found that exercise (I know) actually makes me feel better. Although my play list is much angrier :)

    BAAAAHAHAHAHA!!! Amen all the way! My boyfriend calls it the "dreaded week before" and says its seismically bad lol!

    Not anymore; I use to crave dark chocolate raisinettes mixed with popcorn (smart balance) that is until I started eating the whole box of raisinettes, I knew I had to kick my habit ;-)

    i rarely eat when TOM's around.

    It makes me feel gross, and Im already bloated at that point anyhow.

    I want grease...as gross as that sounds.
    Fried...cheese or some form of meat covered in bread crumbs.

    I'm getting pretty good at controlling it though.

    I crave fries, but only wendy's fries.. my boyfriend knows that if I don't get them he's going to have a very bad day, or get bag-tagged.. usually both.

    I'm typically a bottomless pit for 4 days, then feel like crap after for a day or two from all the horrible crud I put in my mouth.

    I get super snacky but don't really crave anything. I probably eat a lot of carbs, which I eat too much of on a good day anyway. I just find I'm super hungry with no explanation.

    I don't crave things but I'm pretty cranky/miserable from cramps, bloating, etc. :grumble:

    I'm always hungrier on the first day or two, plus I crave salt like crazy. Just have to try to make it through, luckily there are more pro's to being a woman, than con's lol :)
