    1. Make sure 1500 calories is what you should be eating to lose weight. I am not in the habit of telling people they are doing it wrong, but if you aren't confident of your 1500 goal, get some expert advice.

    2. If the 1500 is correct, then my suggestion is water and green tea.

    You really should not cut down that fast if your were upwards of 5000. Just not healthy for your body- You will shock it.

    I try to keep a 24oz insulated cup with a straw on my desk at all times with ICE water in it. The ice helps to replenish what I drink so my cup lasts for ever.

    Sometimes when i want something sweet and i cant cut my craving- I use a crack pack- One of the 10 calories water flavoring packets? It's not the best thing in the world for you- but it's ten calories, and it helps since it's really sweet, usually once i drink about half of my 24 oz cup- im done with my sweet craving.

    Try one of the 100 calorie packs of popcorn and split it in half. eat it kernel by kernel.

    Soup- Soup- Soup. Make a low calorie broth based soup every week and keep it in the fridge for when you need a little pick me up. I can make a soup for 60 calories a serving with brother and veggies or tomato based with veggies. I can have a cup of soup slowly and it low calorie and keeps me full because it's hot and my mind thinks its having a big meal.
