i can't stop it. lol. i've tried eating healthier snacks but I don't know if that is helping much.

Well, I don't know your stats or your eating habits already, but perhaps you're just used to over-eating? The stomach stretches when we get full, thus leading us to be able to handle more food in one sitting. Let your stomach shrink and eat 5 or 6 smaller meals a day instead of just 3 main meals. Avoid sugar because it doesn't give you energy for very long and sends your insulin levels out of whack, meaning you'll get hungry quickly afterwards. I'm sure some other posters can be more helpful...

Indulging in carbs (especially starches, sugars, etc) will keep you hungry almost all the time... if you get enough protein, and good carbs... your insulin levels should remain stable and you should not have cravings... also, eating 5-6 small meals a day helps too. You did not list what you normally eat, if you do that, maybe we can help... good luck
