How to Eliminate Snacking

I hear it all the time, "if I could just stop the snacking." Many people workout and eat pretty well during the day. Then they go home. And oh baby, that's when the trouble starts. After dinner, they snack the night away. Here are some sure fire tips to help you eliminate snacking once and for all.
  • Eat many small meals, about 5 or 6 a day. Eating so often will keep you full.
  • Elmininate the word "snack" from your vocabulary. Have a small meal in the evening so that it replaces what used to be a "snack."
  • Don't stock your shelves with "snack foods." Non- smokers don't have cigatettes in the cabinets and non-druggies don't have a stash of heroin "just in case." Get rid of it and stop buying it. Buy some new clothes for your thin body instead.
  • Drink plenty of water. During your withdrawal period (2-7 days) you will crave carb/salt/sugar loaded foods because that's what snacks are. Drink water. This craving will pass.
  • Once weaned off, if the urge strikes or necessity presents itself (birthday party, etc.), have a tiny taste and walk away. Literally, walk away from the table or step into the other room.
  • Set an "end time" for all evening eating, 8:00 or 9:00 PM would be a good idea.

Break the snacking cycle. Your body will love you for it and you'll love your body. You'll see your results explode, not your waste (OK, I know it's waist) line.
