Around that time of the month, I have this horrible urge to eat whatever is around me. All the junk (food, that is) I can see, I will eat. I mean i will eat whatever but after a couple of weeks when it shows on my scale, thats when I hate myself 
Is there a remedy to it? How many of the guppans experience this? Anything that helps?
Re: Ladies...PMS...food...
I drink loads and loads of herbal tea...but sometimes you have to give in, Id die if i didnt eat chocolate :(
I usually crave fruit when its my time of the month...Pineapples and Watermelons
Re: Ladies...PMS...food...
Fresh fruits and veggies supposedly ease symptoms of PMS. Thats what "the literature" says.
Mama says. Chocolate - preferably friendly's "forbidden chocolate" ice cream with a tower of whipped cream on top. Steak, lots of it. Medium and juicy. Baked potatoes with butter and sour cream. Anything with gravy. Pasta. Throw in a roast beef hero with gobs of mayo, salt and pepper, some fried chicken and everything will be right with the world.

MM: YOu are so lucky to crave food: i crave JUNK: chocs, sweets, fried stuff etc. :( I drink tea as it is but that doesnt really help either. I am doomed :(
Mamaof3: I am sure veggies are good for me all month long, and I do eat them as salads, sabzi salan etc. But a week before that time of the month, I will eat my usual meals PLUS loads of choc, junk snacks etc. I like it how you make fun of your eating habits :D I wish i could do the same.
Desi churail: Yep chocolate it is! I ate a huge bar of cadbury's choc. with hazelnuts for breakfast on thursday!
Devoted2Allah: I think we are going to suffer from this forever.
Shahreen: You say apparently. Has it helped you?anyone else that you know?
Re: Ladies...PMS...food...
ok lets get honest here gals....there are a couple of cures for PMS...chocolate, meat, gravy. Once we accept this as a fact of life, we can move on...
Re: Ladies...PMS...food...
I eat like a pif the day before...I feel so hungry, but when my p actually starts I always feel hot and bothered and drink lots of water.
