Hello,
This is a common problem with several approaches.
Don't let yourself get so hungry by including small high fiber snacks thru the day.
When you get home try drinking a glass of fiber like Metamucil and wait 20 minutes before eating
No seconds. Try snacking on rice cakes or calorie free beverages or a high protein bar with 1 g carb.
