How To Fight Cravings and Achieve Your Diet and Weight Loss
Goals.
Consume less calories and you'll lose weight sounds easy right?
The urge to eat is strong for most overweight people, in fact
it's not unlike the desire to drink for an alcoholic or the need
to smoke for smokers. It can be maddening, and most of time
depriving yourself of food only leads to binge eating which can
shatter any dieters confidence.
Suppressing your appetite can be done relatively easy if you
follow certain guide lines. First you should never allow
yourself to get so hungry that you lose control and devour all
food in sight, this will throw your diet completely off track.
Instead you should try to eat many small meals throughout the
day, and drink a large glass of water before and after every
meal this is important because it will trick your body into
thinking it's full.
Another tip for stopping cravings in their tracks is to eat what
I call filler foods. These are foods that you can eat large
amounts of, but they contain only a small amount calories. You
can eat as much of these foods as you like and still lose
weight. A few filler foods that I enjoy are cucumbers, plain
oatmeal, wild rice, lettuce, and cold cereal with skim milk.
Most fruits and vegetables fall into this category, and most
people find that these foods are very satisfying and do a good
job of filling you up.
There is no easy way to lose weight, but in addition to diet and
exercise there are supplements that can help give your diet a
boost. Most notably Hoodia Gordonii which comes from a cactus
grown in the Kalahari desert, and up until recently was unknown
to the modern world. Hoodia is perhaps the most powerful
appetite suppressant available today, and during a 60 minuets
investigation even the reporter who tried Hoodia said that it
did indeed eliminate his desire to eat.
With news of Hoodia's effectiveness many diet pill manufactures
are jumping on the bandwagon and coming out with products that
they claim contain pure Hoodia Gordonii when in fact there are
only a small handful of diet supplements that contain enough
Hoodia to be effective.
