Yes, i do follow these tips myself....by focusing on healthy habits you can take your mind off the craving and it will soon disappear! Try at least 3 of these great healthy tips everyday:
(1) Always eat a healthy breakfast- Do Not skip breakfast! If you are like me, you might get a craving first thing in the morning, so instead make a healthy breakfast for yourself.
(2) Eat more starchy foods (not Potatoes) Example: eat wheat, oats, barley, rye and corn
(3) Eat more fruits and veggies.
(4) Drink plenty of water.
(5) Eat more monounsaturated fatty acids. Examples: Vegetable oils such as canola, olive,flaxseed, & safflower seed. Nuts & seeds (not peanuts). Olives and avocados.
(6) Eat more fish. (aat least 2 times a week)
(7) Reduce saturated fats & sugars.
(8) Consume less salt.
(9) Balance your weight- do you need to gain weight or lose it? Get your doctor to help you.
(10) Eat 3 Superfoods a day. Examples: Soy, leafy greens, garlic, wheatgrass juice, mushrooms, flaxseed oil, green tea, seaweed, blueberries and almonds.
I do most of these things everyday when i eat my meals. I noticed that when i focused on what i am eating and drinking, i am less tempted to think about smoking because i am more focused on being healthy, and smoking is not an option when you are watching out for your health! Sometimes when i get a craving, i go and get a big glass of ice water and drink that- i don't focus on the craving, i just go and distract myself with something healthier. I hope these tips help, Friends. These tips are from my notes on a book called 100 ways to stay young. It is focused on health, nutrition, and exercise, and emotional health too. I just wanted to share my notes with you all,
Have a nice evening,
Love, Lisa
