How to Stop Snacking!
If you find that you're inexplicably drawn to the kitchen cupboards, or that fumbling around the fridge is your favorite after-hours activity, it's probably a result of boredom, not genuine hunger.
Here are a few ways to help get your mind (and your stomach) back on track:

*Take up a hobby. Keeping your mind and your hands busy with something you enjoy will reduce your temptation to eat because of boredom.
*Read a good book. If you find a real page-turner, you won't want to put it down just to get up and graze.
*Take a bath. Get a little aromatherapy going and sink into a steamy bath. Focus on relaxing, and don't even think about running to the kitchen before getting into bed.
*Have sex. Hey, why not? That's what I call a good distraction!

those are good ideas thanks. I am a bad snacker. I do it all the time. I can't go to sleep at night unless I have eaten a bunch of junk food

That might work well for some, but sex makes me really hungry wink.gif I definately need to snack after sex LOL
