PMS is awful for us IBS'ers!! Try to resist!! NOT! A bit of chocolate might stabilize your stress levels induced from chocolate deprivation...and we all know that stress is a huge IBS trigger! Ha! Ha!

No, not a chocolate emergency! I've been there! Did you get something during your lunch break? Anyway, I read your post and then had to have some Cocoa Krispies. Lol!

FYI - Sometimes my chocolate cravings can be satisfied with strawberries (although I can't eat too many) or something strawberry-flavored.

I know what you mean! Only, it's not pms that's causing my craving. I have so badly been craving chocolate birthday cake! I have a box cake in the cupboard that I've been eyeing... the problem is the frosting! I want lots of frosting and not dairy free either!

As I was reading your post in flat mode, and where someone else said that you had made them want chocolate I thought, "Hm, that's weird, I don't want chocolate..." and I ALWAYS want chocolate.
Well, about 2 minutes later I found myself rummaging through my cupboards.. Hee hee!
But for two whole minutes, I did not crave chocolate, hee hee.
I am PMSing right now too, AF should be here first thing tomorrow (she is usually very prompt, the lovely thing) so I am glad I did a long gym work out today because tonight is my good TV night and as I will be on my butt on the couch, no doubt my mind will start to wander to chocolate and other yummies!
I am sending you good PMS vibes and the hopes that you will not pay for any chocolate indiscretions! Hee hee!

Know what works for me? Tootsie roll. Break off a small piece and suck on it. It usually lasts long enough to stop the chocolate craving.

Go all the way, Shell--M&M's aren't chocolate! Put on a "French Woman" attitude and have the real thing and act out that deli scene from "When Harry Met Sally" when you do it.

Surround yourself with yummy smelling candles, too.

Okay, some 'healthier' options--chocolate soy milk/soy pudding/rice dream crap.

But that's wussing out and an insult to chocolate. So, I'd just go out and get the best damned real piece of chocolate that you can find and enjoy it.

Have you seen that movie, "Like Water For Chocolate?" Well the book is even better.

Actually, sex is better than chocolate, in my experience--can you squeeze in something of that nature, release those endorphins/opoids and get that whole CNS vibrating and humming?

I just ate a whole pack of cinnamon altoids at once. Colour me cinnamon. I have dragon blood tonight.

Have you ever had chocolate covered expresso beans? I haven't had those in forever and now you've reignited my craving! Da-- you, Shell! I think I'll stick to coffee--that does the trick for me!

Kate.

I've actually been willing to forfeit a stable tummy for a TON of chocolate covered almonds too. Except, i'm like a week out of PMS so it might not just be hormones, LOL!

But sometimes, chocolate is the only freaking answer!

Just indulge, as long as it doesn't rip you to shreds...

I had to do a good grocery run, and of course EVERYTHING looked so darn good. Well... I couldn't resist a package of Halloween Oreos . Oh... and I also bought a couple of sugar cookies from the bakery along with my *semi-safe* chocolate frosting that I'm going to cover my chocolate cake with.

You're too funny Shell! To be honest... I NEED THE CAKE!!! I love frosting too... but oh have I been craving cake! I'm actually torturing myself. I have a baby shower this Sunday and the woman putting on the shower for me has graciously agreed to serve chocolate cake for me (with frosting of course!). So, knowing full well that I will regret eating it now, I've been putting off making my box cake until sometime next week. Oh... *sighing very heavily*, the torture!
