I snack all day long too. I can't eat big meals at one sitting, even before I was pregnant but even more so now. So, i end up snacking all day. I try to snack on healthy things like vegetable sticks or fruit. BUT I love bread and pastries, which i regularly indulge in. Luckily I have a pretty high metabolism, so I've been thin my whole life despite all the carbs and sweets.

Right now if I feel the need to snack, I do, baby's hungry!

Usually though I drank some water first and then if I was still feeling the need to snack, my stomach would already be partly full.

drink decaffeinated tea! really helps suppress snacking.

I had the same problem, largely because I wouldn't eat regular meals at consistent times. I had to make sure the only snacks were healthy ones and I had to make sure I ate breakfast and lunch.

Usually my lo keeps me pretty busy so there's no time. And she's such a light sleeper I try to be extra quiet when she's napping, that keeps me from eating loud food like chips.

My rule is to eat when I am hungry but not when I am just bored or just feeling peckish. I like to listen to my body so if it's hungry then I feed it. So I eat something about every 2 hours and I find that prevents the really big pig outs.

I'm not a big snacker (I prefer big, awesome meals!) but when I do get snacky and start accumulating naughty things, I do a giant purge and get rid of everything that's not healthy. I fill a bag with the good things and have my husband bring it to work. Then I do a big shopping of healthy snacks (yogurt, string cheese, fruit, popcorn, Fiber One products). Usually I end up slowing down with the snacking with only healthy choices available, and Rob Sr. ends up finishing whatever I don't eat.

sorry, no help here. i love to snack! trying to snack on more fruit though.
