Killing the last hour

Obsessed with dieting?If you vowed to give up cheese in 2009, chances are, you've been fantasizing about Brie on a daily basis. And research shows that's totally normal. A University of Toronto study found that when women were deprived of chocolate for a week, they experienced more intense, chronic chocolate cravings and scarfed about double the amount of the sweet stuff when it was finally allowed. Instead of boycotting bacon (or whatever verboten vice you have),reduce your portions. Determine how many calories your cravings account for, then cut that number in half. Your goal is to be satisfied with 150 calories of your favorite treat per day.
