I get sugar cravings too. I have no clue why. Not a whole lot has worked for me either. I have seen a doctor and my blood sugar has always been within norms too. Sugar cravings got especially worse for me when I started long-distance running. When I got done running 10 miles, nothing hits the spot more than a bunch of…

Here are some things I learned that has helped me: It really does take time and patience. Do not spin your tires too much.

I am not a big fan of fad diets but maybe something like Volumetrics would be helpful. The principal of it might help you learn to eat foods that make you feel the fullest thus reducing your need to snack.

Good job on losing weight! Stick with your lifestyle change and in time, it will pay off. One of the biggest pieces of advice I can give you is to avoid under-eating. I had a spell where I was stuck at a certain weight for almost two weeks despite eating very little and running all the time. I boosted my food intake and…
