Cravings

As I work to lose weight, I am still troubled by cravings--even when I'm not hungry. It's not about being hungry, I guess. It's about relaxation. My brain just doesn't know how to relax if not with something sweet and high calorie being eaten. Preferably something chocolate.

Not giving in to the cravings produces a pouty brain. A little child inside me with her bottom lip sitcking out and her arms crossed. I hate this feeling. So far, the only thing that gets me past these moments is to get busy with something else. Not very satisfying, really. But it does work.
