Snack Attack! How to control them.

Hi folks. I am 16 weeks post op and down about 64lbs. I am very pleased with that, however I feel it could be more. I eat a bit more than most of my peers that I talk to on a regular basis and about 1/3 to 1/2 of my daily calories are made up of snacks. I am still loosing an average of 3lbs a week and don't want it to stop do to all the snacking. I have many hobbies so redirecting my attention doesn't do it for me...I can decorative paint and eat, read and eat, go shopping and eat. etc. I snack on fatfree pretzels, ff pudding snacks, fruit, lf popcorn, lf cheese, etc (I am choosing healthier snacks than I would have pre-op). How do you snackaholics control this? Do you still snack? How often? I don't mindless munch all day long. However, I average about four 100 cal. snacks a day...and can't seem to kick the habit (in addition to 3 small mostly protein meals). Any words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. -Kim
