Ladies what is worse for you during that time of the month? The water gain? The mood swings? Or the desire to eat everything in site?
All of the above! I feel bloated, lethargic, and can't seem to get rid of the munchies for several days before my period. Of course, then I feel grumpy about being bloated, lethargic, and constantly hungry. Why do we have to put up with this?!?!

TOM is brutal! All 3 for me too! I just want to eat everything in sight during PMS time...and then just when the munchies end the bloating begins....and then the pain!!! It's a dieting setback time for me every month for sure.

Yay! I lost 2.6 lbs of water retention since yesterday. Peed like crazy all night. Relief is in sight! Also ate half my breakfast and felt full. So the crazy cravings are calming down. Mood is still so-so but a bit brighter knowing TOM is near.
I am now officially 5 days late and I am so over these bloated, *****y feelings. Can we get on with this already!
