10 Ways to Curb Your Snacking Binges
by Renee Kennedy
non-caffeinated herbal tea with a spoonful of honey.
There are several drinks on the market with no caffeine
and no sugar - buy a lot of that stuff - different kinds - and
keep it on hand. Before you go for a snack - drink 8 oz. of
your favorite drink, then decide if you really need a snack.
6. Take up something you can do with your hands --
crochet, knitting, puzzles, cross-stitch, sewing, playing piano,
paint your nails and toenails, weed the garden, do a little
housework, look at a magazine for the fashions you
will buy when you're thinner...
In other words, get your mind off food and onto a healthy
hobby.
7. Don't watch TV. TV encourages snacking -
you're sitting there, you feel like you should be doing something -
so you go for the snack. Also, most of the commercials
are about food. Stay away from TV, take up reading
or another activity in number 6 above.
8. When you're finished with a meal or a planned snack,
brush and floss your teeth - this will help you stay away
from food for about an hour.
9. THINK - just take about one minute to think about
what you are doing. Go look at yourself in the mirror
during this minute. Ask yourself, "Do I really want to
eat this and PAY the CONSEQUENCE?"
10. Use your NutriCounter - Every time you eat something -
input it into your NutriCounter - This will help you keep track
of what you've REALLY eaten. Snacking and nibbling
can be the death of a healthy diet. Here's info on the NutriCounter:

Last month, we had a fabulous testimonial from
a satisfied NutriCounter user. Here's what he has to
say about keeping track of what you eat:
"I already have a NutriCounter, it has done wonders for me.
In April, I had my gallbladder removed (I'm only 33). I am 6' 4"
and was 304 lbs., in pretty good shape. After my
operation, I started to watch what I ate, the doctor said it would
be a good idea. Writing everything down was a real pain, although
I thought it was working well.
Then I purchased the NutriCounter. Wow! I was eating about
1200 to 1600 more calories and about 30 to 60 more grams of fat.
Writing down the info was not even close to what I really was
taking in. The best news is I'm 251 lbs. now, I lost 53 lbs. so far.
Just wanted to say thanks." Corey Susz -- PA
