I think your snacking is the result of eating WAY too little. Summer is a long time from now, you can drop a pound a week easily and be just fine. I would only drop your calorie intake 300-400 down from your normal diet. With exercise 3 times a week that’s an easy pound a week. With how little your eating you are going to be prone to cheat snacks, fatigue/poor workouts, and starvation mode. Almost everyone is guilty when dieting of taking it too hard early on. Keep it as something you can easily maintain and you’ll get there. Good luck!!

Eating a bit more has worked well for me. I was cutting my calorie intake drastically (1000 cal a day) and I wasn’t having nearly as good of workouts. Also I felt like my metabolism was slowing down and I was prone to binge eating or bad snacks. Now I’m only cutting 500 calories a day out of my diet and I’m actually losing weight faster because I’m able to have much more intense workouts. Hope this helps. All the best.
