How not to want sweets: Eat. I don't know about you, but I find when I start cutting back on food (real food, like meat, whole grain, fruit vegetable... not junk, like stuff with hydrogenated fats, sugar, and soy in them), such as missing meals or eating little during each meal, I start to gain more weight. And I crave CONSTANT SWEETS. When I eat more often, and higher quantities of those good foods, I begin losing again. If I am getting what I really need, when I really need it, my body lets me know: it doesn't crave all the junky stuff. If my body feels satisfied, it won't ask. Oh, and I've found eating apples (I started liking Braeburn especially lately), watermelon that's especially juicy (ohhhh sooooo yummy.. Costco seems to always have all good ones when it's in season), or other sweeter fruits curb the craving for me. I had an apple earlier and it tasted deliciously sweet. But remember to reserve anything sweet for after meals (fruit included, as it may not be sugar but can still cause a similar reaction on an empty stomach). Also try substituting honey fo anything that calls for sugar... it doesn't always work as well, but it may still work fine. Also remember, if you must have sweets or really starchy things (like pasta... try to stick to brown rice or whole wheat pasta, and similar... http://www.azurestandard.com/ has some great brown rice pastas, esp. Tinkyada brand), it's best to wait to have them until after a meal. If your body is starved, then suddenly gets sweets, it'll think it was a famine and it'll retain all the sugar you give it, and spike your system, etc. Eat filling (but not stuff yourself) meals that are balanced for a few days and never remain hungry, then see if you still want any sweets!
Reply:Excellent. I really hope you're able to figure out the best combination of practices for yourself, and get fit in time for that trip :) Report It

Reply:eat healthy and when u use up all ur junk food dont buy more
Reply:Got get your bathing suit. Try it on.. Still want those sweets?





When you get home, eat fruits and veggies.. Have a fun trip
Reply:the easiest way to stick with a diet is to not even have that junk food around you. throw is out if you can, or if others in your house object make sure they realize you're trying to eat right, so keep the junk food out of sight. make sure you have a wide variety of healthy snacks to chose from instead.
Reply:Afterschool just eat a light snack, and drink some water. Or do what I do, eat dinner after school and then a little snack later on if you get hungry again.
Reply:If you put chocolate in the fridge, then it lasts longer. You can enjoy it longer, but only have one piece and it helps you with your weight thing!
Reply:The first step is don't buy junk. Second step excersise and replace your bad food for good food. Also if you excersise and do well reward yourself every once in awhile.
Reply:drink alot of water and eat fruit
Reply:aaaaaaaaw, the infamous sweet tooth, just when you want to reach for those chips or candy bar or whatever else is in the cupboards, ask your parental unit to put the sweets in a place where it'll be harder for you to see! and have them buy good stuff like fruit, even frozen fruit is good too! because you can make frozen fruit smoothies to curb that sweet tooth, and to top it off, it's good for you! put, frozen fruit, concentrate oj, and even yogurt and skim mild in there to give it a creamy taste! just mix together for texture! good luck!
Reply:i suggest trying to cut down on junk food when you get home and maybe just a healthy snack or eat more at school. that may sound a little weird but i'm just trying to help. :D
Reply:Don't completely deprive yourself.. you'll loose the battle and end up feeling crappy about yourself. Say you like chocolate.. get some jello-pudding packs that are sugar free and allow yourself one after you've eaten a good dinner. Jello is also good. Eat good food to fuel your body and eat portions that are the size of your fist. YOU CAN DO IT!!
Reply:Try fruit with low-fat dips. Like apples with lite caramel. Or strawberries with low-fat chocolate dip. Find them in the produce section.
Reply:First stop smoking weed, it gives you the munchies.


When you get home do your homework and eat sugar free and fat free foods.
Reply:Think about this every time you go to reach for a unhealthy snack; 1 I'm ruining all my previous efforts today. 2. What do i want more a cookie now or skinny sooner. 3 What good can this cookie do for me?


find a good alternative if its cookies have oatmeal and only one! If its pudding have yogurt if its chocolate let me know i have an antioxidant chocolate that's fat free and only 70 cal a piece and very filling and very satisfying. (And tastes amazing, not all waxy like most low cal low fat choc.)
Reply:Start eating fruits like bananas, apples, grapes etc....in place of junk food...see how that work out for u
Reply:I am in the same situation as you are. Let me try giving you a little tips..try healthy bar snack or drink a fiber/protein shake and drink a lot of water . It really feels up the hunger, and if all else fail.. try to go walking, take a long bath, or do something to get you to think about eating..


one other thing,


join a gym after school or join a sports team at school and usually that will take up your whole day and by the time you get home it will be dinner time. :)
Reply:Ok never go down the wrong path for a healthy diet. Do what all the other stars do, when you are going o reach for something sweet go aim for frozen fruit like grapes strawberries and raseberries. Buy the fruit then stick them in the freezer and they taste deliciouse!
Reply:go buy some doves! and freeze them. keep away form junk food if you want to loose those 45 lbs! you arent going to get anywhere if you keep eating junk food. they say the first 2 weeks are the hardest to keep away from junk food. i used to be liek you .i would always come home from school and eat ice cream, cookies, soda, bags of chips and everything. just put eveything down and say NO and have some self contol over your self. try drinking some non-fat or low fat chocolate milk or strawberry milk. when you eat a bunch of junk food you are not hungry for dinner. so eat an apple wiht some carmel or peanut butter. those are more healthy alternatives to curb your sweet tooth. or just ignore it all together.





i also posted some comments on your other question earlier. thanks for picking me!





how old are you anyways?? you sound young. sound liek me when i was in high school lol
Reply:Eat some carrot sticks, small salad, or some string cheese or something instead of all that candy. Or you could buy some appetite suppresents at Walgreens, it will make you not hungry
Reply:when someone asks how to lose weight and people answer "stop eating junk food" it drives me absolutely insane. You can't change your eating habbits at the drop of a hat, and its very very hard to control.


I found for myself, that when i'm eating something i know i shouldn't be, i think about something disgusting and try to convince myself that the food i'm eating is gross. That's how i stopped eating fast food. I just convinced myself i didn't like it. Most of it is mental.


If you still want some snacks, make sure you divide the whole thing. Like if you buy a huge bag of chips or cookies, the first thing you should do when you get home is get small baggies, and make servings. That way you know how much you're eating, and you don't eat the whole bag. You can still have the bad tasty things, you just have to watch it.


Also, to help control your hunger, eat tiny things throughout the day, like an apple, celery sticks or trail mix so you don't go crazy and devour something bad for you in large amounts.
Reply:write yourself a note in the morning. get your bathing suit and keep it around. Get home and eat healthy things. go for a jog, but write a note to tell what you're doing. and go some where some what populated. but i think the most important part is to keep eating.
