The key to controlling hunger is balance. Every snack or meal should be composed of a good lean protein, a good (high fiber/low-glycemic) carbohydrate, and a good fat (almonds, olive oil). And you should try to eat every 4 hours or so. This will eliminate a lot of cravings and the low blood sugar crazy/shaky attacks.

This is basically the Zone Diet and I SWEAR by it. It does take a lot of effort to get into and maintain, but it is totally worth it. Everything is improved by it...your health and mental outlook especially.
