How do you all deal with cravings? I know I can't be the only one with this problem - during my PMS week (how much is too much information . . . I know), but I bloat 5 lbs. and crave chocolate and quick carbs like crazy. Even if I eat plenty of produce and protein, I still find myself at the pantry door over and over for a couple of days. Do I just let it go for those 2 or 3 days or try to fight it?? Any suggestions will be most helpful. Unfortunately this has hit at the end of the month so I may pass on weighing in a month-end total, as it really won't be realistic. :roll: :roll: :roll:

I don't have PMS but still have the cravings. Try some B-complex vitamins. It might help take that nagging craving away. I take 100 mg b complex and It isn't nearly so bad. I can actually pass the fridge w/o looking in it! LOL

Rose--be careful on that treadmill. Take it easy... you can worry about the weight after the wee one appears.

Obie,
I know exactly what you mean!!! LOL!!! Lynn |
I am somewhat eating more now, in preparation for the incentive program in March. :roll: Being the winner is not my biggest intention, but maybe the incentive will jump start my losing again. Platues are frustrating :!:
There has been a good response for the "Weigh In Reward Program" to be posted Fri. Feb 26. Hang in there girls!! |

I know this because I crave chocolate like a MAD woman when not pregnant. While pregnant I can't stand anything sweet--especially chocolate!! keep up the good work everyone!!! Rose Hall |
Today is weigh in day for me and I have gained 2 lbs. I know what the reason is. I did not exercise at all for 3 days and I may (just may) have gotten a little cocky since losing 4 lbs last week, This gain sure took that attitude right out of me. LOL Instead of walking 1-1/2 miles this morning, I walked 2.48 miles. It is a new day, a new beginning, and I am determined to keep going.

I weigh in this evening. I will try to report as soon as I get home, if not, in the morning. Sorry, don't mean to be a trouble maker.
Hope everyone is happy and healthy today. Fake it 'til you make it! Linda |
