when counting calories, I find I have the best success when I carry around my water bottle. Just chug that baby and refill when I'm having a craving! I know I'm getting enough calories and protein for the day but for some reason that knowledge doesn't keep the cravings away.
What are your must haves for success????

A couple of tablespoons of semi-sweet chocolate chips, peanut butter (natural, creamy), a handful of oats and a little dab of shredded coconut. Keeps me going every time!0

Dessert. Have to have something sweet every day.0

Crystal Lite (1 packet tea + 1 packet lemonade + one gallon of water = life savor)0

slowly sipping coffee throughout the day helps fend off the cravings for me. I dont always succeed though

I smoke, ha. Really. Oops
I really don't smoke much (0-3 a day) and I plan to quit some day (maybe), but between struggling with the deficit, fitting in the workouts, going to bed earlier to sleep enough, staying hydrated with mostly plain water, cutting back on calorie dense treats I enjoy... I'm like, damn it, I wanna smoke my calorie free smokes and I shall!! It's the one step missing to this healthier me = / Hehe <=) 0 -
Alright going to do some research into quest bars and see if they fit in my plan.0

Blaugh, gross. I can't stand quest bars (the texture and sweetness from the sugar alcohol is disgusting to me), combined with these other two foods? Nope!0 -
Diet sprite, quest bars, boneless skinless chicken breasts, and pb2. Oh and 100 calorie bags of kettle corn!0

Some kinda chocolate.0

A knife. I have never been able to cut anything without a knife. And people that use a fork to cut food while eating are heathens.0

When I reach the last month or so of competition prep I don't use utensils at all. Steak, chicken, vegetables and scrambled eggs can be eaten using my hands and teeth.

Meal prep and planning ahead. Saves so much time and money. Makes it easy to hit my macros, eat filling foods and fit in yummy things.0
