Keeping Cravings under Control

Days when you are not feeling like a salad
Don't know about you, but if I eat certain foods, its a downward spiral to overeating and feeling miserable.  It happened to me yesterday at breakfast.  I have always known that eggs when served on their own create havoc with my constitution.  Literally, within 1/2 an hour I am starving, and feel like I am watching the clock to meal time, or hanging off my pantry or fridge door.  No matter how I try to distract myself, working, walking the dog, my mind is fixed on food.  It won't be the green leafy type rather the healthy kids muffins or breads that I make.  Honestly, these are good foods, but I prefer to avoid them as for me, they are the foods that tend to congregate around the middle.

So, yesterday there was nothing in the fridge that I felt like.  I hadn't been cooking or experimenting so there was nothing quick and easy to snack on.  The only ingredients that I had on hand were the green leafy type.  Problem is:  I DID NOT FEEL LIKE ANOTHER B______Y SALAD.  
I think you get the picture.  

Despite these feelings, I thought ok, I don't feel like one, but Im going to make it anyway.
First I got the celery out, chopped it, put it in a bowl.  Ok, not bad.  Next a cucumber.  Hmm Looking better, then an onion, red capsicum, green beans, spinach, olives and 1/4 avocado.  Ok, I can do this.  Drizzled a bit of olive oil and apple cider vinegar.  Seasoned with himalayan salt and pepper  and topped with a little crumbled fetta.  By the time I had finished putting it together, I was really looking forward to it, and it was DELICIOUS.

My cravings stopped.  I didn't think about food till I was preparing dinner, and I felt sustained all afternoon.

So next time you have a craving, eat the foods that you least desire.  It may work for you as well.
