Any advice on this....?

Hi everyone,

This is a question for the ladies only I guess.

Does anyone have any advice on how I can tackle TOTM?

Seriously, a few days before, I literally cannot stop eating. I've tried having just fruit handy but I just end up going to buy c**p from the shops. I'm an absolute monster. And, to make it worse, it's never in moderation. I literally eat for about 8 people. It's ridiculous.

Are there any vitamins I can take to try and combat the monster muching urge?

I fear my next step to take is sewing my mouth shut for a few days a month, I'd only find a way to shove it in through my nose or something though!

Thanks in advance for your help

Sorry no advise here..... but following as I'm exctly the same.

Alwys know when I'm due on as I find myself muching through a pcket of biscuits mindlessly without even realising why I'm doing!!!

Me too, plus I find my pains in the first couple of days are much worse if I don't fill up on carbs. Hot food hot hits the spot best for me.

Suggest trying sw potato scones or mug shots.

Hope this helps.

I always drink loads of water if I'm hungry and make really comforting sw meals. I also drink a very milky hot chocolate(2 syns) which usually sorts my cravings out.

Thank you all very much... I do find that it's carbs and sweet things that I crave, and my will power just fails dramatically!

I find that I'm soooo good the rest of the time, then I just ruin it by pigging for 3 or 4 days!
