    Go work out instead! Then, if you're still hungry or craving, you can treat yourself as long as it's within the limits of whatever you burned!

    I like that idea, get a workout in and then you'll totally earn a healthy snack. Keep your goal in mind! You can do it!

    Either go for a walk outside, have a tall glass of ice water (crunch on the ice too), or reach INTO your fridge and pick an apple, some carrots, or something that makes your jaw work. And there's always air-popped popcorn. If you need to eat, make a good choice!!! :flowerforyou:

    Or some frozen banana blended with whey protein, fills me up every time! Or oats in the mike with some cinnamon and raisins! Don't binge, just eat something small enough to hold you til the next mealtime or til you burn some wicked calories and "earn" a steak :)

    if you really want it go and do a walk or a workout before hand so that way you wont feel as guilty... if you do have it without exercise there is a good chance you will be up on the scales next week and not only that but your gonna feel like crap straight after a binge and youll kick yourself for it... not a nice feeling.... remember why you joined MFP... and your doing so well dont mess it up now :(:sad: :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad:

    exercising is always great when you are craving. :) Get up and move and you will feel better afterwards. :)

    Plan ahead. Eat every 2-3 hours so you will not be hungry.

    Oh and don't buy junk food. Don't even keep it in the house.
