    I work on my hobbies that keep me from using my hands to eat. I have several pieces of furniture I am refinishing/prepping for paint, seed starting begins soon, digital scrapbooking, etc.

    I also try to allow about 100 to 150 cals for a snack (my current fav is hot air popped popcorn sprayed with a bit of I can't Believe Its Not Butter)

    Don't keep sweets in the house. No matter how intense your cravings get, you can't eat what's not in the fridge, freezer, cupboard, etc. Also, I find that drinking Celestial Seasonings Sleepytime Vanilla tea takes the edge off.

    Tea works for me :smile:

    This is my problem as well! I try not to keep "yummy" things in the house, but then I get so hungry about an hour and a half after dinner that I raid the fridge and pantry. I'll eat a couple small bags of microwave popcorn, 3 string cheese sticks… it doesn't have to taste good for me to eat it. I've begun crafting lately, which keeps my hands busy, but maybe I'll make myself some tea and see if that works, too. Thanks for the idea!

    I work a late evening desk job so this is tough for me, too! I've found the key for me is eating low cal snacks like Skinny Pop popcorn or dried seaweed.
