*TMI* (woman topic)

I don't think you will find much scientific evidence that "cravings" before your period are legit, but I know it happens to me. I generally eat healthfully, breakfast is always a good combo of protein, fat and fiber...cravings still happen. I have a Mirena IUD, so I haven't had an actuall period in close to 3 years. I always know when my time of the month is coming up, all of a sudden the thought "gee, I could really go for a Twinkie right now..' pops into my head, when a week before a Twinkie would have had no appeal at all. Chalk it up to the joys of womanhood.
