How do I avoid eating chocolate? I always crave it & wanna give it up!?

Tough one. Suger is addictive. Remember that any craving only lasts 2minutes, and if you can ignore that craving 28 times in a row it will become a habit. It has been reported that when someone craves chocolate you should give them a hug, it relieves it apparently? Not sure about that, but give it a try!! Haha! Good luck =)

Lots of ideas for you:\n\nDrink plenty of water - being dehydrated makes you crave sugar.\nEat good chocolate - get some of the 70% stuff, you won't want to eat so much of it.\nEat good food before you get too hungry - that'll stop you craving a sugar fix.\nEat sweet things like fresh or dried fruit and have a drink of water when you want to eat sugar.\nOnly eat sugar after a meal, that way it won't make you go sugar high and then hit a sugar low.

Chocolate doesn't really help with sexual urges, in my experience.  Working out is a great way to get rid of that excess energy, especially something aerobic like running, using a heavy bag, or kick boxing.\n\nAside from that, masturbation can also handle those urges, if that is allowed according to the perosn's individual vow.

the more sweets you eat the more you want. so try not to eat any. the secret to getting rid of the crave for it is drink a lot of water.

This is a big problem with me, when you're trying to cut out the sweets or any food in general. Just make sure you have a bag of those baby carrots in your fridge at all times, and munch on those when a craving hits. They're also convenient to carry with you too. Just stick some in a baggy when you go out and stay away from restaurants like McDonald's or KFC if possible. You'll be drooling just smelling the food from outside.LOL! Good Luck!

Girl! Eat what you want. . .you are about to experience the most annoying function of a woman's body - treat yourself! I've never heard of anyone dying from eating too much chocolate or Ben & Jerry's before their period. It's only once a month. . .

What foods are you craving specifically?  If you need chocolate, you are better off eating high cocoa versions like 70% cooking chocolate.  If it is burgers, try eating chicken burgers instead of ordinary ones.\n\nI over ate last week because it was just so damned cold.  I also over eat if I am stressed out.  Think about how you are feeling at the moment and if you are stressing about something, do something to sort it out.  Exercise is really good for stress but if you are feeling stressed the last thing you want to do is exercise.  Catch 22!\n\nGood luck!

...its an addiction, so you may find 'replacing' it, or substitution will work better as a 1st step.\n\nI did it with chocolate. Didn't think i could stop eating it - then just made the decision that if I felt like a bar, id have a bit of fruit instead...\n\nIt is now a running joke amongst all my family and friends that I eat soo much fruit. Lets just say I get my 5 a day. :)\n\nIts healthier and I am slowly weening off having so much of the fruit too.\n\nSooo... if you want, try the fruit (grapes are best cause they are bite-size. Get a pang, eat a grape. lol\n\nOr  there is chewing gum... you choose.

No.  Not necessarily.  She may just really like chocolate and want some.  For future reference, you could keep track of her cravings and her cycle and figure it out for yourself.  My theory...chocolate is the answer to everything!

Try to eliminate all sugar to beat the sugar cravings.\nSomething I saw on Oprah which makes a lot of sense....\nYou need to be comfortable with that uncomfortable nagging feeling you get when you want to nibble.  That is when people sabotage their diet.  When you get that feeling, don't eat - that is when your body is losing weight.  \nI am trying to lose my pregnancy weight now too - I joined a gym with a daycare, and am trying to make better choices.  You can have snacks when you hit your goal weight. Your weight loss should motivate you to keep going, I love it when I fit into jeans I haven't worn in a while.  I lost 23 lbs and have 40 left to go.

Smoking makes people used to putting things in their mouths.  You're simply in that habit and chocolate suffices now that you've quit smoking.  Oh, and congrats on quiting.  Take a new pill called hoodia.  It makes you not want to eat, and it's healthy  and all natural.  You can get it at Sam's Club.\n\nAgain, congrats on quitting.

The more you count the worst you are going to do.  Just stay away from anything w/sugar alchohols.  \nEat the good stuff--the less processed--no fake chocolate or ice cream until you are close to maintinence.  If you put it in your routine you will regret it.
