Controlling Your Cravings

Listen, carbs and sugar are incredibly addictive, and the cravings can be tough to kick. 

The best way to stay in control is not to think of something as: “I can’t have it!” But instead, “I don’t want it!” Get into the mindset that you don’t want to cheat because it doesn’t make you feel good. A moment on your taste buds is not worth sacrificing your health. There are plenty of ways to treat yourself with ketogenic foods! 

The word “restriction” does not need to exist in your ketogenic vocabulary.
