    That's what the food diary is for! Just log everything you eat and think before you start snacking! I was a grazer too but I'm much more in control now.

    It's about habit. You'll reach for that bag and have a handful in your mouth before you even remember that "oh. I was trying not to eat like this" and then it seems like "well, hell, I guess I'll start tomorrow". Just stop. When you get that handful and remember. Put the bag back down and go log what you've eaten, to the best of your ability. If you keep stopping yourself, eventually you'll stop the reaching to begin with.
