You should stay consistent with your meals. Ideally, you should have three meals and one or two snacks per day. If you can maintain that for a week it will become a good habit for you. If you think about it, when we are used to eating a meal and then 10 minutes later we're hungry again, every time we grab another food our body becomes used to that.
Maybe you're not actually hungry. Recent studies have been saying that emotion is the key factor for hungry. Generally people tend to mix up hunger with boredom or sadness. And that's because Americans are starting to eat just because they are sad or bored. So maybe if you think to yourself "Am I really hungry?" before you have a snack you'll know if you actually are hungry or not.
As well as mixing up emotion and hunger people sometimes mix up thrist with hunger too. Try drinking a glass of water before a meal. It will fill you up a litte more so that you're not hungry afterwards. <----- That's what I'm doing now. Everytime I think I'm hungry I have a glass of water. And it's helping a lot.
