Filling up when snacking - Trick of the mind!

Snacking

You don't have to feel like you haven't ate at all when snacking! I've always found that when snacking, if I eat on the move or while I'm occupied I can often feel unsatisfied and left hungry. I think there is  a way to trick yourself into feeling full up, even if your not. 

Sitting down with a meal and slowly eating always leaves you full up, why not sit down with a snack and take time to enjoy your food? We do it with meals so why not with snacks? I have been taking time out of the day when possible to have a small snack. I will sit down with the snack and eat it slowly chewing as much as possible, today an apple left me feeling satisfied using this trick. It's a good way to stop yourself reaching for the biscuit tin or a pack of crisps!
