Bitch, please! Where's my cheeseburger?

There are some days when I struggle with food, especially right before I get my period (yes I said "period" on my blog, whoa!).  I occasionally go on these crazy food binges.  I don't really go for sweets usually, I prefer savory over sweet, but when I get THAT feeling, I go in!  I'll go for "junk" food QUICK, especially my go-to comfort foods such as pizza, french fries, and chocolate chip cookies (can you say Cookie Monster)?

So I just give in to my occasional binge craze (since it doesn't happen often) and to try and avoid the madness I like to do what I call the "Saint/Sinner" technique.  Basically I'll be a Saint Monday through Thursday (avoiding processed foods as much as possible, drinking more water, incorporating more veggies, among other things), and Friday through Sunday all bets are off; I allow myself to be a Sinner those days.  I see these binge fevers as my inner child (my cutie-pie fat kid) having a tantrum.  She's like, NO MORE VEGGIES, WHERE'S MY BURGER BITCH?! So my Saint/Sinner technique works for me so she can stop trippin' so much.  Like today for example, it's Friday but I was "sinning" a little too much this week.  But ::sigh:: my little girl is not satisfied.  So what I think I'll do is try to compromise with her today.  I'll let her have that cheeseburger if she lets me add a salad on the side.

Let me know, have you ever experienced "tantrums" like this? If so, what do you do to get through?
