What do you do to past the time and resist munching?

    Try taking a short walk...have a snack that has a lot of fiber/protien to fill you up. Allow yourself a snack, just make it a healthy one.

    Chewing gum is a trick I use too, keeps your mouth busy and if you get the dessert flavored ones it feels like a treat. If you can take a break and go for a walk that helps, or switch tasks to re-engage your brain. You can do it! Focus on you goals!

    I have my Fiber One bar for my PM snack at 4pm. It's 3:15 now...:ohwell:

    Bananas curb appetite, even just smelling one will help!

    I know a lot of people say that sometimes we confuse thirst for hunger, so I make myself chug a glass of tea or water first. Hot tea works really great because you are apt to sip on it for a while, which can inadvertently help you wait long enough that your hunger will subside on its own. Plus it has some flavor to satisfy your taste buds.
