I am bad with cravings, too. The key for me is not to deny the cravings, but to be reasonable. If I have a chocolate craving, one or two miniatures will satisfy it Instead of a king size reeses. Pasta craving, I can curb with a little wheat pasta tossed in herbed olive oil or a light vinaigrette instead of an alfredo calorie bomb. The water will help, too. And fiber capsules help me to reduce hunger between meals. I try to take three with each meal.
