We all get cravings at times. It's super hard sometimes! However, there are many things that keep me from eating treats that aren't good for me. I found that for me personally, not indulging at all works, however for some people having a "treat" day every week where they can have one item they crave really helps.
I have found that if I don't eat it, I don't crave it so bad.
What really keeps me from indulging?
I want to heal my body, I want to be as healthy as I possibly can, I want to live a long time for myself, my hubby, and my daughter. I want to feel good, and treats are good for a second, but I don't feel good after eating them.

Will power. We all have it. Tap into your will power.
When a craving is really strong, I make one of my healthy treats! Ice cream used to be a huge thing for me, so now I make it out of bananas! Check out my recipe page for treats that won't be hard on your body, and you won't have to feel guilty about.
Remember that you are worth it! Worth the sacrifices to be healthy!
Be Happy Healthy & Strong,

I have to use extreme willpower LOL but if I'm craving chocolate, I usually run over to Walgreens and get a York Peppermint Pattie. It only has 150 calories and that usually helps with my cravings. Sometimes, you have to give in and eat what you desire to get it out of your system.
ReplyDelete@TheFrugalExerciser: I can see your point of view. We all have different opinions :) My standpoint is not putting the junk food in your body at all, in order to keep our bodies clean. Although I have to admit I used to love York Peppermint Patties ;)
