I eat too much candy, but am not overweight yet. How can i stop my craving?
I run 3-5 miles per day about 5 times a week, and do other workouts besides this. I am a nursing student in college and have to make my own meals everyday, i cannot eat in the cafeteria. When i am studying or in my room, food is a constant temptation. I feel like i always have to have something in my mouth! I try to chew gum a lot, but i just don't want to feel addicted to candy or unhealthy foods.
Thanks for the question. I can be tricky to eat healthy while always on the run or studying. On top of this you work out regularly, all of which burns a lot of calories. Be sure to eat enough at meal times to satisfy your body's need for energy. If you still feel the urge to snack often, AOL has a list of healthy foods that can serve as appetite suppresants.
As a nursing student, you should know to ask your doctor before making any changes to your workout regimine or diet. I hope this helps.

eat a balanced meal, and also try taking chromium, im taking some aswell because i got my time of month and all i want is chocolate, but i do treat myself once or twice a week, i dont believ ein not enjoying but in moderation and savor it. lol.
Try taking a multi-vitamin everyday to meet all your vitamin deficiency, and exercise. maybe you are eating them out of boredom???
Maybe your not eating enough either, you workout quite a bit, your calorie intake should be at 1600-1800 cals a day!
try small snakes, eat something light, and keep snack all day. apple slices, nuts, yougurt, protein shake/protein bars, 1/2 penut butter sandwich, etc?
eat, but eat healthy.
Hope this helps. prevent that college weight gain!!!!
