14 Tricky Traps Activity Scenario # 1 At Home Becky loves to unwind after work on the couch while watching her favorite TV shows. Tonight, a new episode of Survivor is on, so she grabs a bag of chips and a few cookies from the cookie jar that is on her kitchen counter and heads for the couch. Eyes glued to the TV, she mindlessly munches on her snacks. By the end of the show, she has finished the cookies and almost the whole bags of chips. Tricky Traps Activity Scenario #2 - Eating Out Mark and his co-workers typically go out for dinner once a week. Mark likes to go to T.G.I. Fridays where he usually orders baby-back ribs, mashed potatoes, and fried green beans. While waiting for his dinner, Mark also orders a beer and a mozzarella sticks appetizer. Each of his friends order dessert. Even though he feels full, Mark decides to order dessert too. As they leave the restaurant, Mark feels like he is going to pop. 14%

15 Tricky Traps Activity Scenario # 3 At a Party Steve and Patty love going to parties. Patty takes her famous five-layer bean dip. The parties are always buffet style with lots of yummy food such as chips and dips, wing dings, meatballs, ham biscuits, cheese ball, pasta and potato salads, cookies and pastries. They stay in kitchen grazing of food and socializing and eventually sit down to play cards and have a plate of food with them. Between games, they continue to go back for a little more to munch on. Tricky Traps Activity Scenario # 4 Busy Schedule Karen is a single mother of 2 boys working a fulltime job as a bank manager. Her day is filled with meetings, helping customers and taking care of employees. During the day she usually orders lunch from Subway and snacks from the vending machine.
