Jesus set the perfect example for how to escape temptation for food. Rely on the truth of God's Word to help you. Truth is powerful, the more saturated in truth we are, the stronger we will be at resisting temptations and directing our cravings to where they should be directed - God, the author of all truth.
Desperation breeds defeat. How often do I trade healthy food for junk food? What temporary treasures have I craved so much that I gave up lasting victory? 1 Cor. 10:13 "No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, He will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it." God's "way out" is to plan ahead what I will and will not eat each day. Prevent the control that food can have on my life. Think before you eat!
