How to Curb Cravings

Options
You don't have to starve yourself to lose weight, in fact
that's the worst thing you can do. By starving yourself,
your fat cells learn to conserve energy (fat) more
efficiently.

So, your body's fat-storing process becomes extremely
efficient at the expense of your body's calorie-burning
efficiency. If you lower your caloric intake too much, your
metabolism will slow down and you will be defeating your
sole purpose of dieting. It will become more and more
difficult to lose fat. This occurs even if you are
exercising regularly.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Eating everything you want is not that much fun. When you
live a life with no boundaries, there's less joy. If you
can eat anything you want to, what's the fun in eating
anything you want to?

    Eliminate eating any foods that have High Fructose Corn Syrup and you will eliminate quite a few cravings.That includes simple little things like Ketchup.

    I watched the link, well the first 50 mins or so and OMG! Really breaks down the problems with high fructose corn syrup. There have been alot of commercials lately trying to say it isn't worse than sugar but our body doesn't recognize it the same so it doesn't process it the same which leads to us eating more. HFCS doesn't trigger our bodies that we are full so we eat more than we need. Really interesting stuff in this video!
