Well, that explains why I feel my workouts have done nothing for me lately and my kids think I'm mean and off my rocker. My jeans feel tighter and Paleo is going to pot...candy is calling my name. But, there is hope. Knowledge is power! Actually, now that I've been warned, I actually feel better. Well... a little anyway. OK, so here is the skinny on PMS and exercise.
