Allow yourself to give in at a certain time of day, and only that time. Set aside the part of the day when your cravings are at their worst. Satisfy your cravings with the smart snacking strategies just mentioned. If you're determined to fight the need to feed, pop a sugar-free mint or piece of gum - or even brush your teeth. Research indicates that people who get a whiff of mint throughout the day actually eat 3,000 less calories over a week. When all else fails, get busy. Devise a list of activities that will provide a distraction from those hunger pains. When you feel one coming on, sit down and write a letter. Call an old friend. Put on a pair of tennis shoes and go for a walk. Meditate. The possibilities are endless. You can fight those cravings if you're armed with a plan.
