Hi, I know i don't way that much but the way i'm going im gonna be overweight soon. The thing that i need help on is cutting down on the snacking, as soon as i come home from school i eat ice cream, and chips, and pretzels, and all this junkfood. Does anyone know a way to cut down on my afternoon junk-food snack cravings?

what do you eat for lunch? Try to eat more protein because it takes longer for protein to be digested so you feel fuller longer. If you're hungry when you come home then eat a piece of fruit and yoghurt. I usually have an apple and peanut better because it makes me feel fuller (the protein in the pb) and the apple satisfies my sweet tooth.

its not a way to really get rid of the cravings, but to keep you from eating all the junk food. the way to not eat the junkfood when you get home, is to not have ALL that junkfood in the house. i know its hard especially if you have a lot of other siblings in the house like me....but if ya wanna lose weight, you have to cut down some good things. you dont have to stop eating them...just cut down...or dont eat all of them.
