First you need to focus and say i can do it. Then make a deal with yourself that once you come home you'll only have a snack. So instead of another dinner eat a snack or some fruits.hope this helps.

i know how u feel cuz i feel the same way.I keep on saying that i will stay to the diet but i never do . I guess you just have to keep on running and eat better foods like fruits. O yea try to cut down on wut ur eating in half. good luck

ok i know it must be hard not to eat until dinner but how about eating cereal bars or fruit. Sometimes your brain can get confused if its hungry or thirsty so try drinking water first. Also suck on icecubes or chew gum to keep you from being hungry. I got sme great advice once to drink tea or hot chocolate because it takes long to drink and its filling - also is coffee and any other warm drink i think.

thats totally the same with me,as soon as i get home i feel really hungry and eat whatever i can find first.Maybe you need to eat more at lunchtime(but healthy foods of course)im 5.5ft as well,i dont put on weight,so im thinkin that if i contol myself and dont eat too much,i might be able to lose a couple of pounds.Amal

I know exactly how you feel, I've been trying but it just doesn't work, I can't help eating! It's so frustrating!!!!
