[quote=Anonymous]I've lost about 30lbs over the last 6 months and a huge part of that was conquering the snacking all day demon. What worked for me was two things--honest food logging and eating three real meals a day instead of grazing.

The first week of logging was eye-opening--I thought I had a sense of how much I was eating (and I was pretty sure it was a lot) but honestly it was way more than I thought. The sight of that laid out in front of me as a list complete with calories had a big impact and the continued ritual of pick the food, log the food, and only then eat the food helps keep me on track. I'm using Noom right now but honestly at this point I think that I might switch to a free option because there's nothing really magic about it.

Stopping what I'm doing, sitting down, and really setting aside time to eat a full meal, has also been a huge change. I never ate breakfast (although I made sure my kids did) and lunch was a snack buffet that lasted hours in front of my screen. Dinner was my only constant because I try to have us all at the table. Now that I sit with my kids at breakfast and force myself to take a real lunch break, I'm much less snacky during the day.[/quote]
