dieting blues

[gainingmass]

Whats up guys, man this dieting is soo draggin me down, with every calorie i drop my energy levels are low, im pretty much worthless after workouts as i have no energy left. Im taking flaxseed oils, to help curv cravings, is there anything else i could do to fight the hunger pains i get in between meals. What do you guys do when you get hungry and you know your not supposed to eat for another hour or so? Anyways im rambling just because im tryin to get my mind off food for a lil while, If yall can help please do. 4 weeks and 5 days left then its back to bulking !! YEAH!!!

Thanks guys

Yah ive been using coffee in the morning on my way to do cardio, then i drink another cup on my way to workout, but at night i get these urges, usually il go over to my girlfriends house or just go over to my friends house, whatever gets me away from my kitchen and my pantry. The problem is that im in the south, "soulfood" get me. And my family isnt the healthiest eaters, now they do encourage me in every way and tell me how sorry they are that i have to watch them eat fried chicken, mashed potatoes, pizza, ribs, etc...

I was just wondering what everyone does to help control their cravings, and no i havent cheated!!

THanks for the suggestion Xcel, i guess its like killing two birds with one stone, i get my mind off food and get cardio done YEAH!!!

i eat those rice cakes... maybe a little bit of natty PB and some no/low carb jam.... one or two of those hold me over til my next meal.... almost like a cheat food too...

just dont go overboard with them

....Grab a handful of raw Almonds... Helps...has source of fat and protein that curbs appetite pretty quickly. Maybe a 1/4 or 1/8 of a cup. Put them in little zip lock bags pre measured so you don't over indulge.

A good filler with almost negligible calories or nutrients is CELERY. Definitely will keep you regular and curb the appetite.

How many meals are you currently eating? Can you break it up even more so you're eating even more frequently so there is less time between chow time?

I feel for you my friend.. Gumbo, J-Laya, Dirty Rice

Good luck, and way to keep with the diet amidst the trial!
