It sounds like you are doing all the right things. If you get the chance, try to check out the recipes, under "articles and diet"...there's some great ideas about dishes/foods you can incorporate into your diet, and some great food options out there, which may minimize your cravings for other things.
A few satisfying snacks that are good, and easy to make include:
- toasted almonds: buy raw slivered blanched almonds (almonds without the outer skin, that have not been roasted). These can be purchased by the bag or in bulk section of a health food store. Dry roast them in the oven, or on the stove, with a bit of pink Himalayan, or sea salt, and you have a nice snack.
-toasted sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds (same as above, using raw sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds).
- raw hazelnuts, walnuts or pecans.
- toasted coconut flakes: purchase unsweetened coconut flakes at the health food store. Add some Himalayan or sea salt, and lightly dry roast them on low heat for about 5-10 minutes, until they are lightly browned. Heating the coconut brings out the natural oils and sweetness, and this is a great sweet/salty snack
- celery with almond butter
- seaweed snacks (health food store)
- baked goods (see the "recipes" section, under "articles and diet")
Keep doing what you're doing...you're in a good place... |
