Snacking can be a real problem, especially when eating without thought. Most food manufacturers and fast food restaurants advertise snack foods that are typically high calorie, high fat, high sugar, and/or high sodium. When you're feeling hungry the temptation can be great. Plan a snack the same as planning a meal. Pack your snack if you pack your lunch. Take healthier food with you if you are out and about. Fruit works great. It's portable and doesn't need refrigeration.
