I have a couple tips that have seemed to help me:
1.Prepare your 'snacks' in advance- I try to get them ready on Sunday night so I can just grab and go on a weekday morning. I keep my fridge stocked with cucumbers, peppers, apples, strawberries, pineapple, grapes, yogurt, and cliff bars.
2. Carry water around EVERYWHERE! && drink it of course. Helps to keep you feeling full.
3. Don't eat crap food- if it's packaged up from the frozen food section you should probably think of an alternative! I went to the grocery right after school last week, and of course I was hungry so I thought I needed everything I laid my eyes on. Needless to say, i slipped with my health food kick and Ended up getting these frozen, fried egg rolls. Omg. I cooked up two- barely got half of one gagged down before I felt sick! Threw those out! It's neat how your body changes what it likes based on what it's used to. My body definitely doesn't like that fried snack food crap anymore and thank goodness for that.
4. I kind of already talked about this one, but never go to the grocery store hungry! Make a snack before you go or you will hurt your wallet and your waste line!
5. Watch your portions! I read to go pour an average bowl of cereal- then look at the box and measure what the it says one serving would really be. Portion Distortion!
6. Reward yourself for reaching your goals! Just not at dairy queen! Go get a pedicure instead!
7. This one I'm working on- park at a distance so that you can get a little exercise while walking in to work. I wouldn't do this if it was dark when I left work.
With all that healthy stuff said.... Boy am I ready for dinner tonight! On the menu: ravioli with squash!

One more thing.
This is what Mr. DT came home to today. My sweet babies went nutso on some magazines while we were gone! I made sure to give them lots of lovin's when I got home! Weird, right? LoL
