Something that has helped me in many areas of my life where I have changed be it giving up habits, or starting new ones, is choosing an activity such as meditation, playing a musical instrument, doing some push ups etc. Whenever I feel the craving, I ACT and perform my activity of choice. Action purifies thinking - don't think about the craving, because you will probably lose to it. Instead act as fast as you can! Jim WILL POWER!

It sounds as if you are totally committed to making your weight loss plan work. One suggestion: You might want to try doing your strength training before your cardio. You want to put maximum effort into building muscle because muscle mass burns calories. More muscle = more fat loss! I really admire your will power!

I have the same problem with temptations and cravings so I think I'll give that a shot. I’m glad to here you pulled it through with that routine.

But, I think it's even better to eat foods that are known to suppress hunger efficiently, (i, e,. foods high in protein and fat). Yes, I'm one of those low-carb nuts. ;-P But, seriously, maybe you could give it a try and decide by yourself. Experimenting with my diet has changed a lot of my food believes. Anyway, good luck to your fat-loss efforts to everyone. Hi :-)
