Fighting cravings is, for me, one of the hardest things to overcome. Today I was attacked by a pizza craving after I woke up from a nap. Since I had no way to buy any food, I scavenged the house. I found tortillas, cheese, and tomato sauce. I made a delicious pizza roll up with these items and it fought off my craving for a lot less calories.
The problems I face when it comes to cravings is the “See it, want it” tendency. If I see or hear about a food, I want it, and start craving it incessantly. For instance, the boyfriend and I were just talking about frozen custard and it’s all I can do to not dwell on wanting some! This is going to be a very hard thing to overcome. But I have been doing well. Lots of times when I crave something, if it’s high in carbs it makes me not want it as much thinking about how my blood sugars will climb after eating it.
