Unhappy That time of the month!!

I have been SO irritable the past few days. I am having a real bad case of PMS. I feel like I am going to go insane if I don't have something sweet. My weight loss has stalled for the past several weeks so, I cut out shakes & bars this week to see if that would make a difference. However, I am so tempted to go get a shake, bar, or muffin mix in order to satisfy my craving! This is always the time of the month I fear the most, b/c I am so easily tempted. Add in the fact that I haven't lost any weight, but actually gained. It makes me want to binge that much more! (ahh...the twisted mind of a food addict) Help! I need some major words of encouragement!

I stalled a week before my TOM and then the week of, so I had a 2 week stall total. Finally yesterday a pound down. That TOM reeks havoc on us all, but once it's over you too may see a loss so stay strong & stick with it. Many women gain upto 5-6 pounds with their monthly, so try not to get too discouraged. Try some L-glutamine to curb the cravings. Stick with it, patience is a virtue, this too shall pass. Good luck.
God Bless,
Amy-Lynne

Craftygirl,

Can you buy Sugar Free Jello but the kind that is called:

Jolly Ranchers Sugar Free? It comes in green apple & I believe the other red color is cherry. It's softer than jello but taste marvulous! I pump alittle whipping cream too.

Really that's been keeping inspired. It's hard to believe I can have this great desert. No carbs on the SF jello, but a few like 2-3 carbs on the whipping cream.

Let me know how you like the Jolly Ranchers SF jello.
