What does this mean do you ask, well let’s see. What does a dessert shop have on hand, well that’s an easy one, desserts. What are people going to eat if they are hungry at a dessert shop, desserts. Let’s take that same principle and apply it to home.

Let’s say you have your pantry well stocked with cookies and easy to make cake mixes as well as chocolate frostings and your freezer has some frozen pies and ice cream. If you have a strong craving for sweets what do you think you are going to do.

Well it would be so easy to just run to your pantry and demolish a Twinkie or go to the freezer and pull out that half gallon of ice cream or whatever else may be handy in your kitchen.

This one has a fairly easy solution. Just throw out all of the garbage that you wouldn’t want to eat on a consistent basis. If you don’t have any sweets handy when you get that intense urge are you going to take 15 minutes to drive to a grocery store and and run to the Little Debbie isle, I think not.

Unless you have some severe lack of will power this little trick could save you numerous diet crashes.

It’s a simple fact, keep your kitchen clean. When I say this I am referring to the food content of your kitchen but the other implication is also good advice as you don’t want to be eating in a dirty kitchen.
