If you're starting a new weight loss program (or a new diet), one of the hardest things you'll deal with in the first several days is having to manage your cravings for certain foods and drinks.

This is especially true if you're cutting out a lot of processed foods and sugars (you know, junk food!).

For me, that's dark chocolate covered almonds, but for you that might be potato chips or a certain sugary soft drink.

Either way, our goal is to not give in to those cravings and ultimately to eliminate them.

In this video, I share several tips to help you manage these cravings, including the following:

Remove "trigger foods" and drinks from your home
Drink plenty of water, including lemon water and herbal tea
Use lots of seasonings with your food
Drink 1 Zevia per day (if allowed on your program)
Chew Pur gum (if allowed on your program)

Lastly, the more you can stay focused on your "WHY", which we also call your "THIN" on the 2030 Fast Track, the more likely you'll be successful with avoiding your cravings and sticking to your plan.

So make sure you're filling your head with positive, inspirational messages on a regular basis and that you're also connecting with other people who can build you up!
