Beat Cravings




Combating cravings can be tough, but a detailed schedule and a healthy activity plan, which you can create in your journal, will help you overcome these Habits of Disease.

BEAT CRAVINGS WITH A PLAN

Keeping a journal is a great way to go from mindless to mindful as you move toward Optimal Health. Tracking your daily intake, thoughts, successes, and failures helps you learn what works and where you're struggling. But you already knew that, right?
Choosing an activity over eating is especially helpful when you’re dealing with a stressful day and looking for comfort food. Get away from the areas that cause the stress, and take a walk, listen to music, or choose from your chore list. It may also help to ask yourself whether the action you’re contemplating supports your primary choice to reach a healthy weight.

To help you beat your cravings, write down 10 activities that you can do around the house or office when you feel stress or a craving. Note these activities in your journal.


Cravings might be a challenge at first, but stick to the program.
