Satisfying the Cravings...

I don't profess to be an expert in the health field but I have learned a few things over the years in trying to  loose weight. One of the major battles I seem to always face is that I crave certain foods like pizza, cookies, ice cream, etc. I am currently watching my Carb intake compared to protein and calorie in which I can eat the things I crave just in smaller portions. Which indeed sounds great but for me when I buy a pizza I don't want to eat just one slice and call it a day. So for me I have to find alternatives that allow me to eat  more than one slice and not feel like I let myself down.

Last night I made homemade pizza (picture below). I will not say that it is quick because it is not however it was extremely simple. I not only made something that satisfied the desire for pizza but also help me stay in the parameters of what I have been doing (2 points for me). It encouraged me to see every craving as a challenge to find an alternative.

I am still on the hunt for more alternatives to the things I desire. As I learn I will keep you abreast of all the failures and triumphs in hopes that it helps you find a way to enjoy this amazing life we have been given.
I will also be posting links to the recipe websites in case you would like to try something a bit different.
