I have taken up “snacking at night”. I would like to stop this habit. Any suggestions?
Keeping your blood sugar controlled is important in reducing food cravings and nighttime snacking. Be consistent with your eating patterns. Eat 3 healthy meals each day along with 2 snacks between to control your appetite and boost your metabolism.
If you find this doesn’t work, consider this: wait 20 minutes to see if the urge goes away before you give in; take a brisk walk; brush your teeth; drink water (cues for hunger and thirst are the same, so make sure it isn’t water your body is asking for); try a sugar free mint; drink a cup of herbal tea. Set your mind to it and break the habit!
