Select smart snacks

While it's okay to indulge in the occasional snack, the key is to choose your snacks sensibly. Fat-free, sugar-free options may seem like a smart idea, but many nonfat snacks are just as high in calories as the regular kind.

In fact, researchers at Cornell University found that overweight people who eat low-fat snacks rather than the regular versions consume on average twice as many calories. The reason: Labels like 'fat-free' or 'sugar-free' often lead people to think it's okay to eat more.

The better way to satisfy your cravings? Go for reasonable amounts of the real thing -- pick up single-portions of premium ice-cream, chips or chocolates.
