6 Tips to help mindless snacking

Snacking is one of the most common problem of people trying to lose weight. This snacking habit leads to being in a constant vicious cycle of weight loss. How to end this once and for all? Here are my tips to curb the mindless snacking.

1. Water
   Are you thirsty? Hunger is often confused with feeling hungry. When you feel like snacking, one glass of water can be extremely helpful.
2. Delay
   Set an alarm clock for 15 to 30 minutes and see how you feel then.
3. Distract
   Cal a friend, go for a walk, read a book or watch a movie. Instead of reaching out for a snack that you don't want, try to occupy your mind and time with a hobby.
4. "Out of sight out of mind" If you struggle with snacking on sweets or savoury snacks between your meals, consider such purchase in store. Have a shopping list with you and stick to it.
5. Write
   Keep a food diary to become conscious of your eating habits.
6. Relax
   Are you in the "I am upset so I snack" vicious cycle? Have a relaxing bath, try yoga or meditate. By learning how to relax and manage your stress you will snack less and feel better.
