Don’t underestimate the power of planning ahead. When it comes time for a snack or meal, you’re most likely to grab what’s easiest. That could be Cookies or chips if you didn’t plan ahead. If you did, you could be reaching for a higher-protein, more filling, and more satisfying container of strawberries and cottage cheese.< /p>

Agreed it's like the old saying "failing to plan is planning to fail." It doesn't even have to be detailed. Usually my plan is if I need/want a snack I can have a small orange or an ounce of nuts. I have choices and I know they are there. Some days I don't have them, but when the mood hits, knowing they are there means I'm less likely to grab that snickers bar instead.

I'm not the most organized person, but since I know I like Snacks, I divide my daily allotment of calories into four (on weekends) or five (on workdays) meals and I always keep my current favorites on hand. I'm not saying everyone should eat so many meals in a day, but it really helps me stay satisfied.

I always keep Protein Powder single serving packs in my desk at work and the cupboard at home. All I need is a bottle of Water and I've got a shake in a pinch.
