A column distributed by King Features Syndicate about eating small, frequent meals and snacks as a way to manage weight reports a recent UB study compared the snacking habits of women who were overweight and women who weren't, and found that while after 14 days of eating the same snack both sets of women were sick of eating it, smaller women ate progressively less while their heavier counterparts kept eating it even though they didn't enjoy it. The article appeared in news outlets that include the St. Petersburg Times and Washington Examiner.
