Hi everyone, I've been lurking for a bit so I'd thought I'd introduce myself. I've been in the hut for about a week now, and I'm getting really tired. This happens every so often, it's as if my body takes a while to get started. I know feeling tired is common when you are on the blob. I was wondering what others do to feel better? I like to change into my PJs as soon as I get home, and put some big woolly socks on as my feet always seem to feel colder! And I like to watch something funny, like Amelie, and eat random food like lentil soup and chocolate cake. What about everyone else?

when im on it i have to wear jeans that are big on me... for example... im a size 7 but i have to wear size 9-11 jeans to not feel like a bloob during those days. I also go crazy and pig out on hot cheetos with alot of lemon and my mom tells me lemon juice is bad for you during the first days of your period.the one thing i hate is the killer cramps and i dont seem to find a way to make them hurt a little less... i mean they get to the point i cant even walk.

Why is lemon juice bad at the start of your period?

im not sure ill ask her when i get the chance to talk to her, but she wont let me eat peanuts, lemons or bananas around those days, i think it makes the cramps worse or something. ill let you know.

Cool, I am interested.

I read you should eat bananas during crampy times because bananas are high in magnesium and they help to relieve cramps.
That's just what I heard.
