The habit thing is so very true for me. I guess I just didn't think about it. Thanks for the ideas for breaking bad habits.

If you were at home in front of the tv in the evening you'd probably want to snack anyway, so just take water and the nibbles the others said about. It's just that old thing of eating little and often that keeps your metabolism going, so the snacks shouldn't hurt as long as you count them and you wouldn't want to feel deprived while everyone else is munching their choccies, why shouldn't you?

We don't always get to have an advance notice when going to the movies. When we can, we eat something first and it makes strolling right past the concession stand much easier. For those times when you just need a "little something" to munch on, you guys have some great ideas.

I also agree with Sky's post, I've been working on that as well. Not an easy "habit" to break.

Atkins Crunchers are a terrific sub. They are very crunchy.

Nuts are another favorite in our house.

Kumus had the right idea. I always eat out before heading to the movies. It makes for a nicer evening, and I'm usually too full to fret over other people's popcorn.
