Thank You! I am about ready to pull my hair out!. If I climb the stairs at the office one more time, security may think I have lost my mind. Cooking is a great idea. I was looking at some of the recipes and think I will make the fruit pizza with my sons tonight! Thanks again...

I chew a lot of Sugar Free gum! Especially spearmint, which is my favorite flavor. I also try to get a smaller, healthier version of what I'm craving. If I want chocolate, I get a chocolate chip granola bar and enjoy that.

Also, try doing anything to get your mind off of it. Exercise, read a book, and (this might sound strange but...) cook. By cooking something healthy, the aroma from the food will overtake that craving and replace it with a want for that particular food.

I know, I was there last week! Good luck, and I hope this helps! :)

Ladies,

How do you handle having really bad cravings during PMS and not giving in to them? This is my biggest challenge of the week!
