I keep bottled water handy, along with sugar free hard candy. I also bought coffee stirrers which I can put in my mouth and breathe deep then exhale. We can do this!

Bring some lemons with when CRAVING hits hard bite it just lije and apple - craving dies quickly - bring some CINNAMON sticks to chew on like a toothpick - buy a MercyMe cd and sing along - title song I can only imagine - PRAY asking God to help you by saying Serenity prayer - the prayer - God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change Courage to change the things I can and the Wisdom to know the difference and please know and remember -  these are MY loving -  HELPFUL SUGGESTIONS -  please take what HELPS and let go of the rest - to be HELPFUL is MY only aim - thank you
