jamjells	Eat as much as you want as long as it has no fat or sugar. Pretty basic, but does two things. Keeps hunger away and you drop pretty fast. Take a multi-Vitamin while you are dropping. When you have hit your target weight, slowly gift yourself with those two things in small doses. Be sure you don't have an image issue and are at a correct weight and think your fat. Looks are life long. Feel pretty at any weight and find those who like you, for you! :) Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

otisabi	Most of the time appetite can be diminished by chewing on and holding something in your mouth. A lollipop, though high in sugar, is a good suppressant. Since it keeps your mouth occupied, keeps the juices flowing, and does not allow you to eat other things in the meantime, would serve you well. And of course must I say that you are not limited to lollipops? Sugar cane is a good and healthy alternative. Or anything that is a hybrid between the two would serve well. Just make sure you have something BIG in your mouth(written with capital letters) to supress that BIG appetite of yours. Especially during the night time. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Marianne_not_Ginger™	Drink lots of water! I so want a snack every night......but then I grab a glass of water. It fills you up. But also, eat a good breakfast early in the morning and it'll get your metabolism going. Drink lots of water during the day, a small lunch, and then a large dinner (early). Keep active and the desire to "munch" fades. If you're like me, when I sit down to the computer I automatically want a soda and a snack whether I'm hungry or not. It's like Pavlov's dog.....just a natural response. I started sitting with my computer in a place where I couldn't set down a drink or a plate. lol Yeah I know......I'm weird. Like that's going to stop me from eating.....sheesh! But it seriously did help. I'm not too coordinated so balancing a can of coke and a canoli on my knee with a laptop was a tad inconvienent. shrugs Try some of this......see if helps. If not.....call me and we'll talk each other off of the refrigerator ledge. ;) Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Richard	Us yanks use duct tape. Have a loved one tape your arms to the chair and cut you free just before bedtime. Works every time. I have heard of a few extreme cases which required duct tape around the mouth but it tends to pull the hair off the back of your neck so I think that method is too crude. Oh, drinking lots of water and eating unsalted and unbuttered popcorn helps too. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

lees girl	Your daily diet doesn't sound balanced. Eat regular meals during the day or 5 small meals and 2-3 healthy snacks. Drink plenty of water and take a daily Vitamin. At night, if you can't stop the craving, go for a healthier snack, like, peanuts mixed with cereal and raisins. It is actually good and you get the sweets and salts too from it! Have about a cup of it. Believe me it is filling, you might not even eat a whole cup. One more thing. If you deprive yourself of your favorite snack, you'll binge later on. So during your day you can have one serving of something that is your favorite. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
