What do you do about snacking? First off, skip the chips. They're fried and loaded with fat. If you really can't put them down, grab a bag of baked chips instead. If you're looking for a salty fix, pretzels are great. They are basically fat free, but be careful if you're watching your sodium. Popcorn is quick and easy, but select the kind that is air popped or the microwave versions that are 99 percent fat free. You save tons of calories and that means you can eat more. And you can just forget the kind you get at the movies. That popcorn is loaded with fat calories. When in doubt, grab an apple, orange and pear. They're packed with vitamins and tons of fiber and that will help you feel full until dinner.

It would be nice to see a very extended list of snacks to choose from instead of three or four.
