Yep, I have to fight sugar cravings at times.
I get them when I'm under stress or over tired. They come at night.
I do better when I eat eggs...honestly. So, I see the wisdom in Mrs. D's posts. There is something magical about them.
I just found a "bar" of some kind designed for diabetics that you buy at Walgreens (forgot the name...sorry). I might use this in a pinch. It is low fat, no sugar, high protein and has 5 grams of fiber in it. I think it was about 130 calories. I thought it would make a good emergency breakfast and/or snack. It was chocolate in flavor. This might also help to reduce cravings. However, nothing really beats good wholesome "real" food.
I think Chromium Piccolate is helping me a bit with this.
I bought Celestial Seasonings Green Tea Bags. Bought the Decaf and Regular and I'm mixing them. I drink one glass every couple of days...this seems to help a little too.
Also...love that Magic Bullet...really fun!
I did a modified Fit for Life by the Diamonds and lost a lot of weight and felt great!
