Don't go hours between eating.

Eat every four hours. That means three meals and two snacks for most of us. Keep the snacks low calorie. The idea is to keep your blood sugar on an even level. You won't be starving and give in to the candy machine.

Snacks can be a handful of nuts, a carton of yogurt, or peanut butter and crackers. If you have fruit add a slice of lowfat cheese.
