[1988 prick]

I am curious
what is your go-to method of beating food cravings
I may need more ideas cuz I just have a weekly cheat day and i just shove my face with rice cakes

drinking water. and eating expensive nuts.

 

[Trober]

Pickle spears. 0 calorie snack. Lets you eat somethign without gaining anything.

 

[Angry Shoes]

Drink more water, drink black coffee, have self control, do cardio.

Honestly I think most people have to figure out what works for them individually, and it also depends what your goals are. Personally I don't eat some other "healthy" thing to satisfy a craving for something else unless I'm for sure actually hungry, because that generally spikes your insulin levels, and allowing your body to become more sensitive to insulin can be an effective way to curb cravings in the long run. caffeine is also pretty effective if your goal is to just curb a craving altogether.

 

[Chocolate Wombat]

Celery with peanut butter for fewer calories and some protein. Baby carrots. Pickles in general. That or phentermine HCL, as prescribed by a doctor, to eliminate your desire to eat completely!

only buy food that you barely like which also requires preparation

This is a double edged sword. Yeah, it can help, or it might push you over the edge into going out to eat.

I don’t think you can have a successful diet without still enjoying foods that you crave. If you cut yourself off cold turkey, you’re going to relapse and binge at some point when your thirst for whatever it is you miss just overwhelms you.

Use exercise to justify those breaks in your diet. If you know you want beer and pizza later this week, spend more time burning calories in the gym to offset that and you’ll be fine.

I generally keep it fairly simple. Roasted seaweed, Whisps cheese crisps, some kind of pepperoni stick, and maybe some kind of chewy bar like Budda Bar or Love Good Fats. Might also whip up some deviled eggs depending on if I want to heat up the place by boiling a bunch of water. Nuts are pretty good, too, but you have to watch the calorie count. Costco near me carries some Tamari-flavored almond and get a fat tin of peanuts for pretty cheap. Of course, I also combine this with intermediate fasting, so I'm not snacking throughout the day.

i wasnt suggesting it needs to be his entire existence but capitalizing on my own laziness is the only way ive been able to solve food craving problems.
i do also personally eat one meal of basically whatever i want after every heavy lifting session ~3x a week. otherwise i eat food requiring preparation that i dont even want unless im genuinely hungry.

for the deviled eggs, I suggest putting the eggs in an airfryer n make boiled eggs.
ever since I figured out this trick I have been eating boiled eggs alot more frequently.
takes around 10-11 minutes on 180C for a hard boiled egg, though it can vary cuz my airfryer is pretty powerful.

A class of water, a little hand of raisins and chewing gum.

I already got enough bullshit on my counter, as is.

 

[Agent Abe Caprine]

Eat the food I'm craving in smaller portions.

 

[Olive D. Cox]

Lots of water/veggies/sleep
If you need an edge after that I'd use bitter melon in my food. Still fucked up? Add in Jiaogulan tea. STILL fucked up? Start using Bao He Wan. *STILL* fucked up? Go to therapy or a doctor because it's probably a mental issue or medical issue at this point.
