Someone please stop me from having food thoughts :( iv been doing quite well, not losing much weight, but still sticking to calorie goals, but all I can think about is going to get a chocolate bar or something nice and eating it! Even though I'm not hungry :(((

    Just eat one. Eat one fun size piece of dark chocolate or one dark chocolate truffle. Have one - satisfy the craving and then happily move forward :) Everything in moderation - don't drive yourself crazy!

    Get moving, right now. Go for a walk. Call someone you haven't talked to in a while. Do something with your hands.

    All we can ever do is distract ourselves until we're past our moment of temptation ;)

    This is a GREAT resource when dealing with cravings.
    It's not an easy thing to combat, we all deal with it. Do your best to control yourself; it's all you can do. With time you will develop better habits.

    Thanks guys you've really helped... It's nice to know I'm not alone in this! Iv managed to only go over calories by 6, and that's because I had a biscuit instead of chocolate. I picked my guitar up and 'busied' my hands. And why does everything involve food!? Is it because we're social creatures do you think? People social drink and smoke, and all sorts of other things too. I for one, like nothing more than having people over and buying loads of yummy yummy snacks to enjoy and share. Of course, I used to do that on my own too :P
