Go for Cheese and Crackers
"Cheese is full of protein, which keeps you full and can lower cravings for sweets," Davidson says. "Opt for a whole grain cracker to bump up the fiber content."

Don't Skip Meals
"Depending on the time of the main meal, eat a substantial breakfast or lunch beforehand with a good mix of fiber, protein and healthy fats to ensure you're not ravenous when dinner arrives," says registered dietitian Alex Aldeborgh, MS, RDN.

Use Apps to Stay on Track
"Try to eat and chew slowly, and mentally check in with yourself to determine your level of fullness before returning for seconds," Aldeborgh says. Using an app like MealShare, where you snap a photo of your food before eating, can help with this. This allows you take in a moment before you dig in and also allows you to reset and show gratitude for the abundance on your plate, she adds.
