What to eat - The No Crave Diet reduces hunger pains by stabilizing blood sugar levels through choosing the right foods, putting a stop to those relentless peaks and troughs that cause cravings. In just a few days, your brain will start to tell you when to stop eating, and in the long-term this diet should also reverse the insulin resistance that's widespread in modern society. Getting the right nutritions is also vital in controlling leptin, the hormon produced by your body's fat cells to indicate they are full. This diet helps to restore leptin sensivity, which is disrupted by constant snacking. Another hormone reset by the No Crave Diet is ghrelin. This is released by the stomach when it's empty, so it's responsible for your hunger pangs and cravings between meals. But this diet is based around foods that are digested more slowly, resulting in a slower release of sugar into the bloodstresm, so your ghrelin levels will drop and you'll feel fuller for longer - and less prone to nibbling on those biscuits!

The No Crave Diet rules

You must only eat three meals a day, with no snacks or deserts.
Eat breakfast within two hours of waking to kick- start your metabolism.
Leave five to six hours between breakfast and lunch, the same again between lunch and dinner, and 11 to 12 hours between dinner and your next breakfast.
Eat 1g of lean protein per 1kg of your weight with every meal, to prevent cravlings for sweet treats.
You are allowed limited amounts of diary products, but no yoghurt, ice cream or butter- and stick skimmed milk.
You may eat up to two pieces of fruit per day, but no bananas.
You may have one alkoholic unit a day.
Make sure that you drink six to eight glasses of non-caffeinated beverages a day.
Avoid all processed foods and artificial sweeteners- they promote insulin production as much as, if not more than, sugar! Use natural sweeteners instead, such as Stevia or Xylitol.
Eat unlimited carbohydrates in the form of vegetables and salads and limited carbohydrates in the form of legumes.
High-Sugar carbohydrates such as bread, pasta, rice, potatoes and sweets are to be strictly avoided during the first 10 days as they promote cravings and prevent you from retraining your metabolism.
