When ever I feel like I need to snack on something I try chewing a stick of gum instead. It wards off the hunger and I feel satisfied. emoticon

    I do this too! I also make sure to drink enough water, as thirst can be mistaken for hunger and can lead to snacking that gum chewing can't prevent.

    I saw that one on BL, Bob said to chew EXTRA. I LOVE the peppermint flavor. It lasts and lasts!!
