What most of us do is create a couch crater by plopping on the furniture with a bag of crisps or tit-bits and gorge like a ravenous vagrant. Try decreasing your snacking frequency by avoiding food that is dense in sugar instead have a high nutrient content so it fills you up for longer durations and doesn’t leave you wanting more. If you mull over the various possibilities of snacking on an hourly basis without gaining weight then this post is your answer.
