brendaanise 0 Posted January 14, 2009 Being 13 months post op you would think I would be the one of the last people asking this question, but here goes. I have changed shifts on my job (went from graveyard shift to day shift) and have found it VERY hard to keep from snacking after 3 pm. I do good whild I am at work, eating small meals and low calorie meal but after I hit the clock at 3 pm is when I find that I am having problems. I am SO hungry by the time I arrive home that I find myself snacking on everything. I keep low calorie Snacks but this pattern has slowed my weight loss progession down considerably. Any suggestions?

redmom 0 Posted January 14, 2009 I have a supply of Kashi bars at work that I can grab and eat on my way home so I'm not starving when I get there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sue Magoo 71 Posted January 14, 2009 brendaanise: You might try keeping a bunch of sugar free popsicles in the house. Also, if you put four saltines into a little baggie and eat them on your way home from work that should be enough to hold you over, or how about getting some Calcium by having a fat free yogurt just before leaving work. Good luck. Sue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TQUAD64 9 Posted January 14, 2009 Hi Brenda: Here is what I do. I keep raw almonds with me for my in between meal Snacks. I keep them in purse as well, just in case there is a long meeting or I get stuck for hours in commute traffic. I increase my Protein intake with a some liquid type supplement. This helps keep me full and works great when I am in between fills. Exercise when I am board and want to start snacking. I stop watching t.v. which always makes me hungry. All those darn food commercials. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
