    Plan an evening snack into your day, but make sure it's something that isn't easy to overdo. (Ie, don't say "I'll just have a few chips..." because we all know that never work.) Measure out a portion that fits your calories and stick to it. Or try something like popcorn with spices instead of butter (or with just a small, measured amount of butter if you have the calories to spare.) Popcorn has relatively few calories so you can eat enough to *feel* indulgent without blowing your day.

    Temporarily stop buying the stuff that tempts you to binge. You won't have to give it up forever, but keeping it out of the house until you can adapt your habits will help. Better you go out occasionally and get a small ice cream cone than you eat the whole container!

    And find things to do in the evening other than watching TV!
