Are you doing the 6 meals daily every 3 hours?, also what has worked for me is that I pre prepare my meals for the next day, so that when it’s time to eat everything is ready. Also try thinking about your goal everytime you start craving on eating unhealthy, this also helped me out alot, i think about my goal and I control my cravings. Hope this tip helps you!

Kenneth, I am a type2 diabetic so what works for me may or may not work for you. I eat plenty of lean protein (almost as much as I want) That includes cheese, eggs, turkey, chicken, tuna, peanut butter. I eat every 3 hours, and a snack at bedtime. The sugar along with potatoes, white bread, and pasta have to go!!!(these trigger cravings) Most other veggies are OK. Make sure you are eating enough calories to keep your strenght up and don’t lose muscle. I hope that something here can be of help. Most of all, THANK YOU for your service and STAY SAFE

Kenneth, I didn’t see your response that said you are trying for only 1500 cals. That is definitely NOT enought for an active guy!! You probably need at least 1000 cals of protein. When I started 3 and a half years ago, I was 185lbs with a 36 inch waist. I was put on a 2000 cal diet, but now I am @162 lbs with a 31 inch waist and up to 3000 cals a day for maintenance!!!! Over the last 3 years I have put on a lot of muscle, and therefore can eat MORE!!!
