TIP #1: TIMING IS EVERYTHING!
When planning snacks, it is crucial to get the timing right. The challenge with snacking is that you first need to get in touch with your body’s hunger signals (aka intuitive eating). This way you will be able to distinguish between hunger versus appetite.
As a rule of thumb, I recommend clients aim for three meals a day and choose a snack when needed. A snack is usually necessary when you moderately hungry, or around a 7.5 to 8.5 out of 10 –where 10 is ravenous or light-headed. If you come home from work STARVING, you would benefit from a power snack a couple of hours before dinner.
