  • Drink some real fruit juice, or chocolate almond milk.
  • 1. Make sure you are weighing yourself at the same time of day each time. 2. It is important to meticulously measure out your food. 3. For weight loss, cardio is the best type of exercise. But it is important to build muscle as well, so make sure you also do some strength exercises. Don't forget, muscle weighs more than…
  • the solution to your problem is planning yours meals ahead of time. You need to sit down and log low cal ideas for breakfast and lunch and a snack that you think will satisfy you. During the day when you are feeling "hungry" but you have already eaten enough, have a glass of water and force yourself to wait a little…

But since then, I have been researching meals and different ingredients/substitutions and so far so good. If you are doing it for…
  • I used to be like that too! You need to be diligent about logging your food, and drink lots of water! Every time I want to snack I get a bottle of water and go back to whatever I was doing. After 4 weeks, I actually have overcome this terrible constant snacking habit!
  • I have been drinking water at night when I get the urge to snack...and then waiting 20 minutes after I finish 2 cups of water. If You are still hungry after that choose some veggies to snack on. I'm not actually hungry I'm just used to eating everything all the time.
