I normally crave sweet or fried things. I'm actually craving something right now.lol. I love fruit so I'll either make a smoothie, eat some fruit or drink some low calorie flavored water. Those options seem to work for me.

Thanks.

I am a salty crunchy craver so I will eat a bag of Skinnygirl popcorn for 160 calories and it is very filling. I do miss not being able to put raisinettes in it like I used to! Just work it into your daily calories. My husband likes the low carb ice cream bars. They are very tasty.

if i crave fried then it has to be low fat turkey bacon with sugar free ketchup (20 calories per strip) and so yummy
If i crave sweet i will eat a low calorie chocolate yoghurt but not after 3pm because of the carbs in yoghurt, if i crave after 3 i love sugar free 5 calorie jelly Or i make frozen lollies out of different zero cal drinks Xx

Try fresh squeezed lemon with a little agave sweetener and a 1/4 of a teaspoon of cayenne pepper. The lemon gives u a good lemonade to combat sweets craving and cayenne helps with digestion puts your tummy at ease.

I'm craving a big greasy chicken kabab right now went for chicken breast, spinach and sweet potato instead lol what have you been craving?

I'm craving everything...this diet got me looking like a Sad puppy...lol

Maybe you are depriving yourself too much..continue to eat the things you love and crave, but keep it in your daily calorie goal!! I crave chips, I have a bag. I want chocolate, I have a piece. Otherwise those cravings are going to win:)

This^^. Moderation is key. Chances are if you deprive yourself of foods you love you won't stick to this long term.

I eat dessert every single day. And I'd rather enjoy it at home than cramming something into my face while on the run/during work. So I have something to look forward to every night, and if I have a craving-I get that.

I take it to work with me daily because there are daily work "parties" or celebrations at my job and I finally decided to just say no and drink my lemonade and I always forget about it. Donuts and cakes all the time....and I love donuts!!!!!
