When I feel the 'urge' coming on, I sit down, at the table, grab and ice cold Water, and drink it slowly BEFORE YOU EAT. And think, do I really need this sweet junk? You know the answer. YOu dont have to totally cut it all out, just replace.\nfor example; quakers chocolate chip rice cakes instead of a choclate bar\n\nlow fat ice cream\n\npopsicles, smoothies, yoghurt, pretzels are sweet but healthy.\n\nIf urges are super-bad, swallow some vinegar.

Cut all processed food and watch the weight fly off! In other words, shop only on the outer rim of the Supermarket :). Eat veggies, fruit, unprocessed meat, low fat dairy. Stay AWAY from white sugar, white flour, corn syrup. If you can't hunt it or gather it, don't eat it! I lost 30 lbs eating this way. You would be amazed how much better you feel once you cut out sugar and white flour! You will have much more energy. Substitute your sugar intake with Stevia (300X sweeter than sugar) and no calories or carbs! It is natural and does not raise the glycemic index. Good LUCK!!

Eat regularly. Avoid skipping meals or starving yourself. Include planned,\nhealthy snacks into your eating plan. Sugar cravings get more intense\nwhen you’re over-hungry.\n• Eat more complex carbohydrates, especially high fiber, whole grain\nproducts. Minimize simple sugars and refined products. Cakes, cookies,\nsweets, white rice, white bread, and white pasta may cause an “insulin\nreaction” which makes you feel sluggish and crave more sugar.\n• Include a good source of protein and/or healthy fat with each meal.\nProtein and fat are digested more slowly and give satiety to meals.\n• Cut back on caffeine. Caffeine wreaks havok with blood sugar levels,\nincreasing the chance of overeating later.\nHave you got a sweet tooth that never seems to get its fill?  If so, take a look at your diet. Have you eaten foods that are high in simple, fast absorbing carbohydrates?  \n\nIf so, fast absorbing carbs equals an overload of glucose in the blood.  Insulin pushes out the glucose, thus creating low blood sugar in some individuals.  \n\nSolution:  Better management of blood sugar, smarter food choices and eating at regular intervals. And it wouldn't hurt to get your blood sugar evaluated by your doctor.

I've heard various things, like wait 10 minutes or go for a walk.  I'd say wait the 10 minutes and if you still have the craving, go ahead and have whatever it is but try and make it a small portion.  I don't think there's any real way to stop a craving - but I have also heard that after a couple weeks of not eating something (sugar, butter - whatever), you won't want it any more.  I've never been able to hold out long enough to test that theory!

Try to eat half vegetables, half meat/fish or whatever. Take reasonable portions of food. Try reducing the amount slowly if you believe you eat too much. Let at least half of the plate be vegetables. Snack on fruit or vegetables. Drink water when thirsty, but don't over do it. Try not to add salt to the food. Avoid reward food like candy and such unless you really fought for it, and then in moderation. Decide first what the rewards is gonna be and stick by it.

If you absolutely have to have it sweet then use Splenda.  It is made from sugar but doesn't have the effects of sugar.  Even sugar subsitutes should be avoid where possible because they tend to elevate you insuline.

The key here is "Everything in moderation!":) Try to limit yourself to like one sweet a day, and then if the urge comes to have another, snack on something healthily sweet, like fruit or a granola bar or some yogurt. Read the back of the sweets container to see how much is equal to one serving, and try to stick with eating only that much. It is hard, but denying yourself of any sweets will make it much worse in the long run. Good luck and Good health!

Try drinking a bottle of water and waiting about 15 mins.  Lots of times our bodies are actually only thirsty, but trick us into thinking we are hungry, especially when craving sweets.

I know this may sound silly, but increase your water consumption.  I am coming off a 70lb weight loss and found the key to be drinking water.  If I felt hungry I drank water and found that it satisfied my craving.  I also used protion control at meal times, but the primary catalyst I genuinely believe was water.\nMy numbers :\n02/01/06 - 273\n06/23/06 - 203\n\n... good luck
