The easiest, cheapest and best way to stop cravings is this:

Keep some apples in your fridge. They are healthy, sweet and tart.

Slice one up raw. Leave the skin on. After you are finished with the apple drink a big glass of water.

The water expands the pectin in the apple skin and it bloats you up. No more hunger.

One trick that works for me: when you get cravings, drink 6-8 oz of water. Wait at least 20-25 minutes. Often, our (overfed) bodies confuse thirst and hunger. Give your system a chance to re-learn the difference.

If you truly have hunger pangs, make up pre-cut celery sticks and/or cucumber spears. Low calorie count, high fiber content, and lots of jaw action required. Chomp down, along with a big glass of water. You get a "crunch" factor without beaucoup calories. Chewing makes you feel as though you've eaten something, and the water is always a good idea.
