I know that when I forbid myself something it makes me want it all the more. Having it but controlling portions is the key for me.
Ya know they say that if you crave something, you should wait like 15 or 20 min., busying yourself with something else, and if after 20 min, you still want it, then you should have it. But I agree..if you do have it, control the portion size.

One thing I've found that helps me with fighting certain cravings is having a handful of walnuts (and I'on like walnuts like that) and a glass of water, but something in walnuts makes you full....I got that from Dr. Oz (Oprah's Dr. )
