Bell peppers are an awesome snack. Just sweet enough to stop the craving and I never need more than one.
I boil 6 eggs whenever I’m out and leave then in a bowl in the fridge. I love boiled eggs but rarely have more than 1 at a time, and I’ll never take the time to boil a new one in the moment. Boiling 6 at once takes care of breakfast and snacks for a couple days.
15 almonds is about 100 calories. When I want something crunchy and savory I’ll eat that with a bit of salt.
Yogurt. Again, it’s one of my favorite snacks and 1 cup is a bit under 200 calories.
Stay hydrated. It’s amazing how often you’re actually slightly thirsty but feel like you need food. I keep a liter of water at my desk.
If I find myself hanging out in the kitchen for any longer than 1 item, I go for a walk or stretch for a few minutes. I need to physically distract myself to give my body the time to realize it just ate something.
When I absolutely need sugar, I try to reach for an apple but it often transforms into a handful of Mike and Ike’s.
