PMT Week

Oh my goodness, this week has been a killer on my will power.  I have stuck to the diet but this week has been hard.  I was kinda taken by surprise as until now I've found it relatively easy to follow and not been hungry.  I have even been to a restaurant where others have been eating and I just drank a glass of water without any problems, so this week...

Period is due, my irritability levels are at maximum and I'm fighting off a horrible virus.  I keep feeling sick, hot and cold due to temperature and sore throat.  Lots of people have commented maybe its the diet but I know what its like to be ill and PMT week is normally calmed with food.

I have been making the kids meals and could drool over the pizza as its come out of the oven.  The melted cheese, soft white bread and tomato sauce oozing over the sides, it looked amazing.  Oh how I have missed chocolate this week.  Wisper bars, with the velvety smooth texture and that Cadburys sugary chocolate taste - so good.  However I don't want to ruin all my hard work and I really do need to loose this excess weight.  I just remind myself of why I'm doing this and why its important to me.

I also need to find a way to cope with PMT without always reverting to food.  I need to plan ahead and think of healthier ways to relieve the tension of my hormones - I have started to read Girltalks PMS prep guide.  Its a Godly woman's plan on coping with hormones.  I can learn from this and will be better prepared next month!
