Cravings aren't a willpower problem, they're what happens when you restrict food too much. Loosen the rules, be kind to yourself instead of critical, and pause to notice what you're actually craving before you act on it.

Cravings aren't a willpower problem, they're what happens when you restrict food too much. Loosen the rules, be kind to yourself instead of critical, and pause to notice what you're actually craving before you act on it.
Cravings are not a lack of willpower. They are very often a side effect of restriction. So here are 3 simple things that you can start doing today. Number 1, loosen the rules. Number 2, be kind to yourself. And number 3, pause and check in. And most importantly, remember this: cravings are not proof that you're broken in any way. Very often they are proof that restriction is backfiring.
