First rule of thumb: Never go hungry. I just figure that if I'm letting my stomach growl and going to bed on an empty stomach, I'm just going to be uncomfortable during the night. Also, in the morning, I will be hungrier than usual and eat a bigger breakfast than I normally would. Now, I do say that big breakfasts are important, but eating more than normal is not good for weight control, I'm sure that's a given.
Whenever I'm feeling hungry, I will never eat a snack. Sure, it fills me up for that moment and I don't feel hungry anymore, but I've just offset my next meal. It doesn't matter what the snack is. It can be an apple, chips, pop...whatever it is, whether it's healthy or not, don't snack when you're hungry! I know, it's easier said than done. Who's going to get up and make dinner early just because they're hungry when they can easily pick up a cookie? My point in this blog is that you shouldn't feel the need to snack anymore because your 3 meals (or 5 smaller ones depending on your body type - we'll get into this later) should be enough to keep you going without having to eat anything more. Stay tuned
