Cravings

I do not have a lot of sweet cravings anymore but once in a while I do have them. Especially after dinner or at night while watching a movie I am craving something sweet. I do allow myself some dark chocolate once in a while but there are times when even that doesn't help.

Over time I learned to deal with my cravings and here are some little "tricks" that help me:
  • Make yourself a cup of tea. The 5 minutes it takes to make the tea is enough time for me to get over the sudden craving
  • Drink a glass of iced water or iced lemon water (I squeeze the lemon juice around the top of the glass)
  • Eat some dark chocolate (I normally eat with 80% or more cacao) 
  • Eat an egg (white)
  • Go for a walk, do laundry, read or keep yourself busy with something else so you don't think about it
  • Brush your teeth ;-)
  • eat a little bit of mustard
Maybe next time you have a craving this helps :-)!

Work HARD, dream BIG!!!
