How late do you eat dinner?
I'd cut out the carbs in the evening. Also try drinking more water in the evening. A lot of people stop drinking water after dinner and then end up getting dehydrated before they go to bed. The body is also pretty stupid sometimes and doesn't know the difference between thirst and hunger.
I actually think your diet is pretty good one if you add some more protein and cut out some of the carbs in your daily snacks (i.e. carrots, craisins). I'd also add a banana to your daily diet because they're incredibly good for you.
I tend to munch on things like cheese, olives, and banana peppers in the evening if I need something.. If I'm not worrying about sodium, I'll even hit up some beef jerky or pepperoni sticks.
