Recently I asked you about your favorite healthy snacks, and I was happy to see so many of you respond. Personally, I try hard to eat healthy most of the time, but when PMS strikes, it's hard for me to stay on track. I end up craving everything sweet and salty.
So now I want to know about your fattening, greasy, creamy, fried, sugar-coated, chocolate-covered PMS cravings. What foods call your name when it's that time of the month? Tell me in the comment section below.

Since i am totally pms-ing right now, i can report that last nights "cravings" were creamy white frosting right out of the container, string cheese, doritos and a beer. Yeah...not good, but i am kicking my butt tonight at the gym. Thankfully this only occurs once a month!! lol.

I have three things I crave around period time - Homemade Super Spicy Tomato Salsa, Dark chocolate and beef. I usually resist all three cravings because I know what it is my body is asking for. Sodium, something in the dark chocolate either the cacao or the vitamins and minerals and with the beef its the Iron that my body wants me to load up on. So I boost my multi-vitamin intake before PMS time and during the event.

If I crave anything on a regular day it's almost ALWAYS salty or meaty (chips, fries, hamburgers, pizza etc.)! But when it's that time of the month I get a major sweet tooth! I make my coffee extra sweet and pig out on the tootsie rolls next to me at work!
|

French Fries: these are pretty easy to stay away from....Ice Cream: I will find myself going to the store just for some good ice cream
|
 |
35
I'm not sure I have specific PMS cravings. I guess probably anything salty. A bag of ketchup chips - yum
|
 |
36
there are these chocolate brownies in a bakery near my house and i only ever crave those. they're dense and chewy and fantastic!
|
 |
37
Cheeseburgers... which is completely bizarre because my diet is almost entirely vegan (I'm not a vegan, I just eat like one for the most part), and DARK CHOCOLATE. Non stop.
|
 |
38
I always crave pickles and sour Skittles during that time of the month. It's like I just NEED them or something. Also, Worchestshire sauce. I put it on everything because I just crave the flavor of it.

I get mad cravings for french fries and cheese on or with anything. I can't stop eating cheese during that time o the month. Perhaps it's a calcium thing.

Skittles, the tropical ones or the berry ones. I get into that I.Must.Have.Them. mode, lol. Hey, at least they are fat-free!
