- 2. Drink a full glass of water 10 minutes before eating Try and eat foods in the most natural state as possible. (Salt, which is in almost everything targets a craving for sweets) Brush your teeth immediately after eating Eat smaller meal more consistently (Ideally 5-6 meals a day) If you get bored, do something that involves momentum (throw the ball for your dog, go for a walk, or run errands) If you’re not in a position to move around, put a non- preserved food in front of you with very little sugar (apples, celery, carrots etc.) fruits such as bananas, strawberries, or peaches that are high in sugar have a tendency to not “fill you up” and make you want to eat more

Editor's Notes
- Cravings are something that everyone deals with. Some more than others, but nonetheless, we all get them. These are just a few ways that you can get rid of cravings. For instance, when you aren’t fully hydrated, it sends the same signal to the brain as if you are hungry. Thus, it is an easy mix up. Eating meals every few hours will help eliminating binge eating. If you do decide to cave into those cravings, you are less likely to eat as much of them. Sure not all of these things are best for everyone, but they are small tricks that can help you eliminate over-indulging in sweets.
- Going out to eat is inevitable and often a great treat. Meeting with friends, treating your family, or just simply not wanting to cook that day are all reasons people go out to eat. How many times have you gone to a restaurant and ordered something you weren’t quite sure what you were going to get?

This is the case for most foods.
