    I am the same way. I now eat 6 small meals a day. I am eating about every 2-3 hours. That way, if I get hungry shortly after eating a meal, that is OK, because the next one is right around the corner! I am taking a class on increasong metabolism, and was told if you include a carb and a protein in each meal, the carb will fill you for the short term and the protein will fill you for the long term (if you call 3 hours long term :)). It has worked great for me.

    Don't deprive yourself of anything! You'll only want it more. But only reward yourself with those forbidden foods on occasion...say once you meet a mini goal.

    Try asking yourself if it is really physical hunger or whether you want the food to satisfy an emotion. If you ate within 2-3 hours you might just be emotionally hungry. Once you identify the emotion then try to find a way to deal with it. Boredom, Loneliness, Tiredness, Stress, Sadness or even contentment can cause us to comfort eat!
