Hello :) first time poster (long time lurker)
I thought I'd share a tip that I saw “saltylifts” share on Instagram that has been helping me avoid overeating between coming home from work and dinner.
She explains that “...a barrier food is a low calorie food you use to avoid overeating. Ex. If you come home “starving”, eat this food so you don’t divebomb into your fridge or cabinets. It buys you time & allows you to make conscious choices without racking up calories.”
While I have (sort-of) done this unconsciously there are some great food suggestions in the comments on her post 😊 I personally love pickles, watermelon and stuffed olives as my “barrier food”.

Hopefully this helps someone else through the tricky "getting home from work = unplanned eating" habit that I have found myself in
