....Hi Amber, welcome :)
If snacks are your main problem, this plan will probably be 
relatively easy to do for you.... If you have special snack 
favorites then you can just have them as part of your meal, that is, 
unless they are super sugar laden.... You won't feel you have to cut 
out the treats, just don't eat them between your normal meals, 
instead as part of the meal.... If they are really unhealthy, you 
will have to choose whether or not, they are worth eating, vs. say a 
hearty sandwich or whatever, since you only get one plate per meal...
I guess when that bridge comes you will have to reevaluate whether 
you really need some of these snack foods in your life....
Recently at a family party, we had some seltzer around and I started 
drinking that as an inbetween meal "buffer"... I add a splash of 

lemon or some juice, but not much... this helps somewhat with 
impulse eating (ie snacking) and of course, helps with proper 
digestion of your meals....
Good luck!
Peace,
Deb
