Even though food cravings are more of a psychological than physical addiction they are sometimes very hard to resist because usually they are for foods that are high in sugar and fat. Read on for some simple solutions I’ve discovered to help you conquer your cravings. Schedule cravings into your day. If you know that most of your cravings strike in the afternoon, eat one portion of what you crave during this time. Because you’re indulging yourself, you’re likely to feel satisfied. And if necessary, change your routine during the time you tend to get cravings. For example, if late afternoon is your 'danger zone', make a date with a friend or go for a workout Eat every four to five hours. Here’s the good news: Eating several small meals a day will help to regulate your blood sugar levels so you stay more energetic and alert. Plus, you won’t get too hungry and, as a result, will be less likely to have cravings. Buy a low-fat version of the food you crave. Plan ahead so you have a low-fat stand-in for your craving. For example, keep chocolate-covered raisins in your desk drawer instead of a chocolate bar. I hope these tips give you some ideas to get over your cravings for that food that can potentially destroy your efforts. But remember even if you give in to the cravings, don’t give up altogether. Be sure to read the article on the difference between light, lite and low foods. I've also included an article on a fitness strategy for quitters. Have a good week! Until next time...stay on your plan and stay healthy! Pat Whenever you're feeling a snack attack coming on, brush your teeth.

broccoli Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a nonstick skillet, sauté broccoli and onion in a small amount of water until tender. (Keep adding water.) Drain and set aside. In a bowl, combine eggs, skim milk, and 3/4 cup of the cheese; mix well. Stir in the broccoli and onion. Add the pepper. Spray a 1 1/2-quart baking dish with nonstick spray. Pour the mixture into the baking dish. Set the dish into a larger pan filled with about 1 inch of water. Bake uncovered for about 45 minutes.
