how do you get away from the cravings? I noticed since a lot of y'all are bulking cravings are not a big issue. I crave food.
 
I really do not crave junk or fastfood. I just crave food. I could be hungry-not eating enough calories. I dunno. emotional eater? boredom eater? I dunno. \
 
I take vitamins and drink approx 3 liters of water daily.
my breakfast is the biggest meal I eat. I take whey during the day.
 
I sleep 6-8 hrs a night   

I eat small, frequent meals during the day and I allow myself for cheat items during the week.

gracias!!
 
yea I try to eat several times a day. every 3-4 hours so I am not starving at anytime. I make sure I eat a good filling breakfast.
 
right before I workout I usually have a scoop of whey or some trailmix  so that I am not STARVING afterwards. I hit the gym in the evening.

My shake usually fills me up for a good 45 min. to n hour, then I get hungry.

try upping ur calorie intake slightly
 
if ur eating every 3 hours then maybe u just need a few extra calories to sustain urself

if ur trying to lose weight its gonna happen. im fine when bulking but the longer i cut the more food i start craving. like u its not unhealthy, its mainly thing like peanut butter and just food in general.   i just try not to think about it but yea it sucks

if your craving something not so good for you dont sweat it. Having a cheat meal every now and then is not that bad. You can adjust other meals to compensate, or you can just eat and forget. some people even set a day aside for eating whatever they want while dieting the other 6 days of the week.

But usually my cravings are for something sweat, or a certain taste for something, if its really bad I will eat something healthy that will calm the craving.

chocolate protein drink/bar if i want something sweet for example.

but usually I just forget about the craving and it goes away.

Try eating every 2-3 hours instead.  Your metabolism will increase, and you won't be as hungry as often.

You might pick up a few bits on cravings.

idk whats with me lately..i'm not even hungry but i keep wanting more food. even when i get full i'm looking at the clock wondering when i'm gonna eat again. not obsessively but more than usual, probably because it's summer

like my quote in my sig says, it's all about discipline.  don't view discipline as something that's going to keep you from obtaining your goals; view it as something that's going to help you obtain your goals.

eat more and run more.  Cardio will kill hunger for a while too.
