PMS cravings and healthy alternatives

Feb 26, 2019 at 07:39 PM

What do you crave during PMS? What have you found to be the healthy alternative?

I crave sweet beverages like hot coco and apple cider. To avoid excessive sugar, I switched over to the healthy alternative of chocolate and apple cider-flavored teas. This way, I satisfy my palate without adding on sugar (or calories!)

I always crave chocolate. I found these brookside berries in dark chocolate. I eat a few for only a couple ww points. Satifies the craving.

ennie, did I read you right that there's a chocolate-flavored tea?

I love chocolate, too. Hershey's even has some sugar free chocolate and there are other brands of it also. You might check that out.

Yes, it's chocolate tea! It's a Mexican thing

I totally need to check out the sugar free chocolate. Thanks Travelinglady!

Chocolate seems to be the common craving. I crave it year-round, but especially around PMS!
