Indulge your healthy cravings
While there’s a good chance you’ll crave something junky during your pregnancy, if you have any non-junky cravings, ensure you are indulging them. For example, if you’re craving something sweet, see if watermelon or grapes appeal to you. Another treat you can try is dark chocolate, which has mood-boosting properties.
Don’t skimp on meals
Making sure you are properly fed could help to nip those snack food cravings right in the bud. One way to keep unhealthy cravings in check is to start the day with a nutritious breakfast, which will prevent blood-sugar dips and carb cravings.
Pop some popcorn
If you’re feeling something salty, avoid things like chips, which are heavily processed and high in sodium. Instead, opt for air popped popcorn dusted with cheddar or parmesan cheese.
Drink water
When cravings hit, before you start hunting for a snack, try drinking a glass of water and waiting ten minutes. Other ways to distract yourself from cravings is by socializing and physical activity, such as going for a walk or jog.
