If you are looking to lose weight, you need to eat snacks. I’m not talking about chips and pretzels, I’m talking about healthy snacks that will fuel your body and keep you feeling satisfied. A common problem is women wait too long before eating, so they become really hungry and eat too big of a meal. Instead of waiting, listen to your body’s signals and eat when you feel your belly rumbling! Always keep snacks on hand. Some suggestions include a couple handfuls of nuts, a banana (they are filling fruit) alone or topped with peanut butter, Kashi Go Lean Crunch Cereal in a ziplock bag, or a sports bar (I prefer balance bars because they have a “balance” of protien, fat, and carbohydrates). By eating “snacks” you will keep your body satisfied and will be less likely to eat a huge meal full of calories.
Key Point: Eat healthy snacks= keep your body satisfied= lose weight
