PMS Cravings Did me In

PMS Cravings (and Erin didn't help) took away my chips. Yesterday the table by my office (that I have to pass 95 times a day) was loaded with Halloween goodies. I caved. Feeling crappy, my car practically drove itself to Roberto's (authentic, huge Mexican.) Feeling full and disgusted, I ate Cookies with juice before bed.

This morning had cookies and chips instead of a Protein shake. PMS to me is like a giant magnet sucking me down into the gutter. They don't serve lean Proteins and veggies in the gutter, either.

I'm of the opinion that there are legitimate reasons to splurge once in a while, and PMS is definitely on my list. Forgive yourself!

See, there should be a 10 day chip! Ducking to avoid shoes... :)

mmmm cookies....I have gone through an entire pack of sugarfree gum today all the whilst sitting next to a spread at work that included candy and bbq weenies. I almost stapled myself to my chair to stay away. Be strong Lisa, be strong. Everyone needs a cheat day once in a while!

Don't worry about. I did the same thing last week and then with Halloween coming up it makes it even worse. I caved too but then you have to give yourself a swift kick in the ass and get it together. It's ok. PMS is a bitch!

I say that for 3 days out of the month it should be PMS binging. I get it everytime..I actually made a choice and had 2 tacos instead of the heaping pile of nachos I really wanted. I have no change so I cannot do chocolate like I really want to either - damm it!

Hang in there Lisa this will pass..

Oh my goodness this week has been HELL for me!!!!LOL i am CRAVING chocolate and salt so bad. I never crave salt either,...so i know im in for a long hall next week. LOL Ive been trying to "walk off" the candy bars but i doubt its helping this week! hehe

It is true;we should allow ourselves to splurge...geez probably to a lot of other americans today was a GOOD day!! =-)

I can't allow occasoinal splurges since I suffer from Obsessive Compulsive Disorder to a certain degree. Just because I ate a few cookies, I then ate a whole carton of Pringles, a quart of ice cream, 2 packs of cheetos, the rest of the box of oreos, half a burger and large fries. Yes, my band hurts. If I could do it all over again, I wouldn't have gotten the band - I'd have invested the ten grand in psyche care. No lie. The best shrinks - that's really what I need.

pms cravings caused me to bake a double batch of double fudge brownies that I of course iced with chocolate fudge icing... I'm restricted and can only eat small pieces, so I managed to eat about half the stinkin' pan in a day, that's a whole box... one frickin' bite at a time. OH YEAH... model bandster... definitely NOT me. PMS should be a male disorder damnit!

I just got over PMS, every month without fail no matter how good I have been...I BINGE!!! For 4 of the days I eat whatever I can get my hands on. I crave sweets and I crave fatty foods. I am exactly the same with the cant just have a few, I think to myself well I have had a few I may as well eat the whole packet, tub whatever.

I would say you would have to be strong as iron to ignore the PMS cravings. I know I cant.

PS I dont think the post was much help to you...just comiserating with you. :(

These last few days I have been getting sausage and egg bisquets at McDonalds~ I eat the egg and sausage and nibble on the bisquet. The bread doesn't pass so easily.....sooo I only eat it till i feel full...but this is not by any means the best choice of breakfasts....Not the breakfast of champions...but cha know what....if I ate at home, it would be something like oatmeal or something. We all have our moments, we all have our down falls...but I do understand its all or nothing~ I just had to throw out some more cookies. I had company over the other night and got some cookies to snack on.. well, the company left and the cookies remained. I had to throw em out. They were not safe, I was not safe alone with them.

Take it one day at a time, and dont beat your self up.......

HAVE A GREAT DAY

3 days before aunt flo visits, I wake up in the middle of the night (each night) and gorge on anything I can get my hands on. Like a drunkin sailor I head on off to the kitchen 1/2 a sleep not knowing what I am doing...and not caring.

It never dawned on me that it was the same time of the month I was doing this until a few years ago. In my case, the best thing to do is to NOT have the crap in the house, instead have healthier alternatives.

But, then there's the next day and passing all those bowls of halloween goodies, and mexican foods, and ohhhhhhhhhhhh just everything DANG GUM IT!!!

I'm right there with y'all.

Are we on the same men. cycle Lisa??? ((sigh)) And Travis is NOT helping. I have bitched for 5 years that I wanted one of those cookie cakes for my birthday. Did I ever get it? Hell no. But out of the blue he brings me one last night for "happy halloween". I could have shoved it up his ass!!
