Times When I Get the Munchies

I'm not sure what all the benefits of drinking Green Tea are but I'd say one of them is that it helps control hunger cravings. I say this because since I've been drinking Green Tea quite frequently, my cravings are now less and less. In fact, I don't get as hungry as I use to, which is a good thing if I want to reach my goal weight.

Green Tea may be helping me with my hunger cravings, but there are still times when I get the munchies, and it's usually during certain activities. Therefore, I've decided that since I can't avoid those activities, I'm going to have to find a way to fight the need for an unhealthy snack during these times or at least find an alternative. Okay, I know the alternative would be a healthier snack, so I guess I should have said I need to find a way to force myself to stick with the healthy alternative.

With that in mind, the activities I'm referring to are when I'm reading, which I LOVE to do, and finally, when I'm watching TV or a movie. What do I snack on? Unhealthy snacks, of course: things such as leftover ham, leftover turkey, lunch meat with no bread and potato chips. I know, I know, a BIG no, no, but since I can't seem to get the munchies to go away during these two activities, I'm going to at least do my very best to replace the unhealthy snacks with healthy ones such as grapes, apples or nuts.

During what activities do you seem to get the munchies the most, and what do you do?
