Words to remember: "Sometimes late night food cravings just means you need to go to sleep earlier."

Have you ever felt completely derailed by a craving? It’s like your brain won’t stop shouting about that chocolate bar or bag of chips until you give in.

Here’s the truth: Cravings aren’t hunger. Hunger is your body telling you it needs fuel, you can’t ignore that. But cravings? They’re emotional. It’s your brain, not your stomach, calling the shots.

So how do you beat them?

Try this simple trick:

1. When a craving hits, set a timer for 20 minutes.

2. Spend that time focusing on anything else, watch a show, drink a glass of water, or check off a task on your to-do list.

Do not give into the craving until the timer ends.

Why does this work? Because cravings are like waves, they rise, peak, and fade. Giving yourself a pause allows the wave to pass, and most of the time, the craving will disappear on its own.

Next time a craving strikes, hit pause. You’ll be surprised how often you can ride it out, and how much easier it gets to stay on track.

That’s All for Today!

Your progress is worth the wait.

That’s All for Today!

Have a wonderful day,
