Snack Smart
It's ironic, but the foods that have the most calories aren't necessarily the ones that keep you full the longest. Foods like chips, crackers, and candy are all too easy to eat, and because they don't have a lot of nutrients with staying power, like fiber, you end up wanting more just a short while later.
Choose healthier alternatives to help satisfy your cravings-and keep you from overeating.
Did You Know?
-You'll stay full for 31 more minutes if you choose a piece of toast with peanut butter instead of half a pastry.
-Choose 3 handfuls of popcorn instead of 20 potato chips, and you'll be full for 37 more minutes.
