Setting a specific goal of only snacking on fruits and vegetables instead of processed snacks, keeping a food diary to track snack choices and identifying triggers for unhealthy snacking, and rewarding oneself with a non-food related treat for sticking to the new snacking behavior are all examples of behavior modification strategies for changing snacking habits.
