I have been reading a healthy lifestyle book saying that rather than having lunch in the middle of the day and then in turn getting the 3pm sugar cravings, for morning tea when everyone else is having a coffee and biscuit you have lunch, then for your lunch break you have enough time for a drink and a walk, then for afternoon tea have another meal that will push you through until dinner. For meals they were talking salads with chicken or tuna and rice, proper lunch stuff. Apparently after you do that for a while the sugar cravings completely go. At the end of the day sugar cravings are just energy cravings so if you're fueling your body with a better energy you won't rely on that sugar hit.

I don't think I've explained it all that well, so I'll try and send you a picture of that section of the book, Becky. x

I find I get cravings at night - after dinner & dessert. I tend to crave white bread and devon!
I don't know if it means I don't consume enough in general, enough carbs, enough water or a bad habit from breastfeeding. Probably all of the above.
