Yes, but do keep in mind that if you eat alot of carbs or sodium that you will experience bloating and water retention, causing a temporary increase on the scale. 

In my personal experience, the best way to curb cravings is letting yourself indulge a little. Having a small piece of chocolate here and there won't harm anything as long as you're still below your calorie limit. 

Answer 2

Yes.  Eat meat and fat and as few carbohydrates as possible.  I do and I have no cravings.  People do not overeat meat and fat.  People overeat cookies, chips, candy, ice cream, French fries, bread, pasta, etc.  My BMI is 22.
