Cravings

Options
I just started dieting on Tuesday... My first few days were fine but now the cravings are hitting hard. Does anybody have any good ideas for when the cravings are bad? I've been drinking hot tea with nothing in it when I need a flavored drink... I don't have enough fresh veggies to snack on those since I use them in smoothies.

    I like to have a few berries or tablespoon of almond/peanut butter, or a lettuce wrap "sandwich". Low calories but hold me over until meal time.

    If you are craving something why not have it and fit it in your calories/macros?

    English muffin pizza maybe? Just an English muffin pizza with a bit of pizza sauce and mozarella, baked for a few minutes. It's really good and not as many calories as a pizza... Or buy one slice of pizza.
