Listen to your body. But be minful of it trying to trick you. There is no easy answer to the question of cravings.
But there are somethings you can do to help. Often when your body is craving something it is telling you that you are deficient in something. Our bodies naturally tell us when it needs something whether it be water, nutrients or carbohydrates.
Many people who crave sweets, fats, or salty snacks are nutrient deficient in some form or another. The defult plan is to eat less of the craved food but not replace it with other, nutrient rich food. Leaving you often misserable or worst, having a binge.
Its not easy, but you need to retrain your body to crave healthy food and nutrients. Start by eating real, fresh food like produce and nuts, lean cuts of meat in moderation.
I am a big supporter of juicing to retrain your body to crave nutrients over calories, it takes some dedication but the payoff can be monumental. Within a few weeks you can ditch those cravings for good. There is lots of info online and many people are skeptical, but all I can say is that it has worked for me!
