If you don't want medicine then you need to reduce calorie intake. There a bunch of tracking apps out there you can try. Essentially if you burn more calories than you ingest your body will burn fat reserves to make up the difference.
The tracking aspect also creates a mental barrier for food intake. If snacking is a bit tedious because you need to write it down, there's a larger chance you really think about eating something or not.
This is my experience.
