As I see from your food diary you are not eating enough. This is why you are hungry and have cravings. For a snak before dinner try to have some complex carbs and protein about 1 hour before you eat. Maybe Less Fat Triscuits with some cheese or add some peanut/almond butter to your apple or have carrots+almonds or even a peace of multigrain bread dipped in extra virgin oil. Dont be afraid of calories. Giving in to your craving will do more harm. Reducing calories you consume has to be done slowly. Or try to alternate days with less calories (1200) and high calories (1400-1500). I think for your weight you have to eat around 1500 cals a day. It's better to eat a little more and burn them through exercises than being lazy and hungry.
