Snacking isn't always a bad thing. Studies show that eating three healthy meals and two snacks a day can actually help you lose weight. By eating every three hours, your metabolism will stay elevated and you will burn more calories. Also, healthy snacking will make you less likely to overeat during your regular meals.

Do you love chips as much as I do? Then I've got great news for you! There are actually chips that are only 100 cal per serving and they taste amazing! Oh, and one more thing - unlike other snacks, a pack of Sun Chips will easily fit into your purse and you'll be able to take them wherever you go! Yummy, healthy and so mess-free! Love them!

Take this low-fat mini bag of delicious popcorn and jazz up the flavor by adding a little spoon of melted organic butter. I personally love Smart Food Popcorn Clusters with honey flavor, it's one of my all time favorite snacks!

6. Healthy Tuna Sandwich
Instead of mayo, try mixing in low-calorie dressing into tuna packed in water. Use a whole wheat pita pocket instead of traditional bread for the the extra fiber.

OMG its good that all of those sound so filling. And a few great ways to avoid gorging- Drink water (itll loosen appetite) Brush Your Teeth (dont ask me...it just does) Chewing Gum (chewing helps. period) An apple (low cal and EXTREMELY filling) Looking at a list of things Youve eaten that day (nuff said) Talking on the phone (and other things to do with your mouth)
hey, i was wondering do you know a diet to loose 2 stone in about 3 months-6months because i will go on a diet if i can have my skinny body back! i was seiousy underweight 3 years ago, but because of that i quit my swimming club and that was my only exersize a week that i did sept walking and i kept to my diet i put on 3 stone and i'm now 9 stone AND I'M 13! My dad kepts putting me on diets he found becuase i used to be great a sport, now i'm a 'slow fat freak'(his words not mine) he doen't like my weight my my shape my mum and dad has got into huge arguements about me... my sisters super skinny best gymnastic person in her year, best sprinter so she teases me a lot as well! And i know, 'be yourself' BLAH BLAH! But personally i'll rather get skinny to get confindent then be myself thank you very much and I WANT TO BE ME AGAIN! i've basically got no friends because 'i'm ebarrsing' i'm the 3rd slowest in my year so HELLLLLPPPPPP! I do 20 sit ups a day, 30 things when you hold your butt in the air for a minute then down again, at least a 30 minute walk/jog, i drink discusting green tea and drink 9 bottles of water with 4 veggies/fruits a day, i've been doing this for 3 months and I'VE PUT ON WEIGHT!
I can't see how you people find these things healthy. Peanutbutter apples? why not normal apples? they taste good, for variation remove the core, put on some cinnamon and some nutrena (sugar replacer) and put that in the microwave for 4 minutes or in the oven for 10-15 (not preheated). for the veggies and dip, just eat the veggies without the dip. popcorn with melted butter? good idea...not just eat the popcorn as it is, maybe put some salt on it. the answers are easy just don't put extra's on things that need to be slimming.
hi, I'm 16 yrs old, between 5'1 and 5'2 and i weigh 130lbs. i run about 3-4 miles each week and i do alot of ab exercises and weight lifting but im still gaining weight! and i need to lose atleast 10lbs in two months. please help! also..i tend to binge alot..like ALOT. any advice? thanks!
