Well do you? π
Needless to say, I do. In my case, I usually find myself craving Coke (Coca Cola not the drug π ) which I do not drink regularly; and crisps or potato chips. Or in fact, anything crispy, fried, filled with carbohydrates and potentially artery clogging π
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 β 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 π
So, do you get these odd cravings before your period? If so, what do you crave? π

Oh potato chips are staple for me once a month hehe.
Just once then Iβll be back on junk food ban π
Hey Paris! *Five*
I crave for potato chips too though I donβt fancy that often. I crave for fries! LOL
By the way, I crave for Coke as well but I might be the only weirdo here, I add a little salt in the Coke for a more pleasurable indulgence π
xoxo
Not weird β i like salt in my coke too! π
LOL π Cool *Five* Glad I am not the only weirdo π
dark chocolates ! i get really bad cramps so every single month, i just want to crawl into bed all day with heating pad on my stomach, nibble on some dark chocolates . boo to cramps !!
Hmmmm, I would crave for ice blended stuff, anything cold and sweet, from slurpees from 7-11 to ice kacang. ^.^ But, Iβll get cramps after, haihz.
You just made me crave for the chips in your pic! I havenβt really thought about monthly cravings though, but itβs coming up soon so itβll be interesting to note.
hey, I crave for basically everything ! especially food which are high in carbohydrates from pastas, lasagna, noodles, roti canai and basically anything which are fattening late at night for around 1 week before aunty visit. Lol. Sometimes if I canβt stand the cravings, Iβll just give in. Sigh
hmmm McDβs double cheeseburger or pasta or chocolate for me~!
My food cravings vary from month to monthβ¦β¦whats stays constant is my craving for some naughtiness with the hubs!!
I used to crave chocolate before my period.
