1 – Drink More Water

This one seems obvious, but most people still don’t do it. Over 90% of people walk around dehydrated, and dehydration often feels like hunger. Before you reach for snacks, down a big glass of water and see if the craving fades.

2 – Add Amino Recovery

Sometimes plain water isn’t enough. Adding Max Effort Amino Recovery makes hydration taste better and gives you a recovery boost. Each scoop has 10g of BCAAs, 5g of Glutamine, plus a hydration complex that helps fight off cravings and keeps you fueled.

3 – Add More Veggies

If your diet feels bland, adding veggies helps fill you up without a ton of calories. You can also add a scoop of Max Effort Greens into your Amino Recovery for a quick healthy cocktail that tastes great and keeps you on track.

The more volume on your plate, the less you’ll crave junk.

4 – Add More Fats

Healthy fats = fewer cravings. Adding an avocado, a handful of almonds, coconut oil, or some nut butter keeps you fuller for longer and keeps your blood sugar steady. Don’t fear fats! They’ll help you avoid those mid-day crashes that send you looking for cookies, chips, or energy drinks.

5 – Try Coconut Milk

Unsweetened coconut milk is a game-changer. It tastes amazing, it’s light on your stomach, and it’s less allergenic than regular milk. Try mixing in one scoop of Max Effort Whey Protein with 10 oz of coconut milk and boom — you’ve got a satisfying craving killer.

6 – Add in More Protein

Protein keeps cravings in check because it fills you up and supports recovery. Instead of snacking on junk, grab a scoop of Max Effort Whey Protein and make a shake. You can also try out a few recipes here. Protein is the #1 hack to keep you full, satisfied, and moving toward your goals.

7 – Plan Your Cheat Meals (Not Cheat Days)

Here’s the truth… you can and should enjoy your favorite foods. But don’t go rogue. Plan your cheat meals in advance so you enjoy them guilt-free and don’t fall into an all-day binge. Cookies, ice cream, or burgers are fine when they’re part of the plan. Without a plan, you’re more likely to graze or cave in during the week, and that’s what keeps you stuck in the hamster wheel.
