[QUOTE="lucylocket61, post: 2358161, member: 41885"] Something else which helped me in the first few days of controlling my carb cravings: Noticing if I was hungry, in which case I had a snack of protein and salad or something similar. I really like ham wrapped in lettuce. Noticing if I was thirsty. Noticing if my mouth was feeling empty as it was used me snacking and grazing. Noticing when I felt the craving - what time of day, was there a pattern of grazing, that sort of thing. I also realized that eating three or four times a day, plus snacks, is a recent thing historically, and not necessary. Recognising hunger was helpful. And distraction, distraction, distraction when craving hit, knowing that they would pass and every hour brought me closer to stopping the craving and habit. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
