Well do you? š
Needless to say, I do. In my case, I usually find myself craving Coke (Coca Cola not the drug š ) which I do not drink regularly; and crisps or potato chips. Or in fact, anything crispy, fried, filled with carbohydrates and potentially artery clogging š
Fortunately, the cravings are only for a day or two and the way I deal with it is by giving in. Its not like I go on a binge or anything ā I just have a cup of Coke, or a snack pack of crisps and it is usually enough to satisfy the craving.
I looked it up online (in case I was the odd one out) but it appears to be quite a normal thing.
Some people crave chocolate, others crave salty things and I crave fried foods. These cravings have been attributed to a hormonal imbalance pre-period and fluctuating blood sugar levels.
I just take it as an excuse to indulge a little š
So, do you get these odd cravings before your period? If so, what do you crave? š

As long as itās junk food and artery-clogging, itās my friend! š It could be squares of dark chocolate or mcd fries-damn you for being so conveniently found everywhere! And my latest crave is sit in bed with the electric blanket and my winter doona and eat icecream straight from the tub. Itās AWESOME!!!
