I never realized how many women suffer from PMS.
My heart goes out to each and every one of you.
Have I got a goodie for you!
Lorraine, author of Jump off the hormone swing ,

Yes, you read that right!

So how do you win?
Just leave a comment here and you're in.
To make things fun, you can leave your idea on what PMS means to you for an extra entry.

I SO need to read this book!
WoW Susie this would be awesome to read... My family would probably appreciate it if I won... Just sayin'
Hi Susie,
I wish this book had been available years ago when I was suffering with a hormone imbalance. Know that you are not alone and that it won't last forever. And most importantly, forgive yourself for those thoughts. That was surely my biggest struggle.
Hugs from across the way in Texas...and remember that Ben and Jerry's Chocolate Fudge Brownie Ice Cream can do wonders for those hot flashes. Go ahead and climb in the freezer and have some! ; )

Oops- I forgot to say that I do not need to be entered in the book giveaway. Hope it goes to someone in need...good information is life changing!
Love your blog! And I wish I had gone to Spokane for the show! Maybe next year. I missed Luckett's too!

Wow, that is very generous of her! I think PMS stands for Periodic Mental in-Stability.
PMS Previously Mentally Stable
Sounds like a great book
Strategies? I Need coping strategies!! :) Seems like a wonderful book!!
Yep! I can relate. I used to have awful PMS. Right now, I am more perimenopausal. My doctor says I am too young at 45 but everyone's body is different so who are they to say what is too young. My period comes and goes as it pleases now -- an absence of up to 4 months at times. I never know when to expect it. Rather than feeling anger or frustration like I used to, I tend to get a bit more quiet and yes, sometimes tearful. I figure it is all a natural process and don't believe in hormone replacement. Our body is doing what it is supposed to do so I say just go with it. Of course, there are extreme cases where some folks just can't cope. I am taking it all as it comes, one day at a time. Wishing you all the best, Tammy
this is so me... I need this book!!!
Pardon My Sweat-glands!
I'd love to recieve a copy of the book if I'm chosen. I suffer from PMS, when this OTHER woman comes to dwell with my husband and I. ;) During that time I don't even know myself and I drive ME crazy.
My family wants me to win this book!
I really need this book so both of the two heads I sprout during this time can read it :-)
This book looks worth reading! I am always on the lookout for help with my female issues.
PMS for me right now, (dealing with this Dallas heat and my wacky hormones), stands for Poor Me Syndrome :(
thanks for the chance to win!
any book that con offer insight and maybe some good advice on how to curb the hormone crazies...has to be a good read!
pms means for me: easy to tear up..over anything slightly sad or happy...lots of reflection on how blessed i am...then tearing up over that...gratitude...then i have times of frustration too...tiredness, disconnect ...often taking a nap to reset myself to a "normal" mood. good grief..it's exhausting...
I don't know if I'm too late, but I'd love to throw my hat in the ring! Husband would love it too ;)
Perfect Men Sympathize!
I never thought I had pms, of course my children would probably say different. But I guess I do have my moments. Sounds like this book could be very interesting for me to read. And to further my chances.....What PMS means to me....It definitely changes up my day to day same oh same oh, right? ha, Blessings, Debbie

You have a great blog! I loved reading about your trip to Farm Chicks. It made me appreciate my lavender! This book would be such a bonus!
What PMS means is that without warning, I become the person I would never want to be - especially to my children. Unrecognizable. Not a nice lady.
I NEED this book, haha! Super givieaway, PMS means a debilitating migraine, erggg!
Thank you so much for sharing such a great book with us. :o)
It is a shame that we can't live like the Old Testament women did ... who during their "time" were put away. :o) That would be heavenly to me! ;o)
Ooooh! I'll be looking for this book for sure! I've just been through some difficult testing to determine what's going on with my cycle - I'm praising the Lord that there is no cancer, but still need some answers. My PMS symptoms are crazy - the kids call it Productive Mama Syndrome because I go into hyper-drive and clean like crazy. As Martha would say, 'it's a good thing'!
I'd love to read this book....
oh yeah... thanks for the suggestion of this book. so many of us will use it!
pms? how i feel is that i have a pretty mean spirit.
which depresses me and doesnt make me like myself very much.
Would love to read this!
My family REALLY wants me to have this book!!!!!
Hey Susie, I would love to win this book. Thanks!

Thanks!
