When you have a hunger for something fattening or bad for you, just take a small taste...Throw the rest away...Use something good for you as a filler...That way you are not denying the taste of something good and instead honoring it...Your taste buds don't know that they didn't get much...It is only your stomach that may rebel...Drink water or have something else...It really does work good....Take care...
