Distraction ideas...
One thing recommended when we want to eat unplanned food is using distractions. How many can we think of. Please feel free to add some.:)

I'll go first:
Brush teeth Read a book on health call a diet buddy post here play with pet or child exercise shower music putter |
Read the "20 Worst Restaurant Foods" list again
|
Knit
Play the piano drink water |
Posting...first line of defense ! Also, foraging for healthy alternatives, like a cup of herbal tea,or a plate full of crunchy raw veggies.
|
I was sitting here trying to think of something and realized that I got nothing! I need this thread! Thanks! :)

..draw/color/paint/crafts
..clean ..look online @ clothes you want once you reach goal |
Hubby and I are both binge eaters and we get our worst urges at night, so when this happens, we like to pull out a game, Scrabble for instance. It takes out mind off the food and keeps out hands busy. The time passes pretty quickly and the urges do too. :)

Journal
Read anything Write a letter Walk the dog |
Crochet! Play a video game :)
Anything that keeps your hands busy and wastes time :D |
Sorry if some of these repeat
Chew gum go to sleep read a book paint your nails put a mask on your face organize your closet clean out papers you have piling up cuddle with a loved one or massage one another's feet with lotion (just a thought) ;) Find karaoke songs on youtube and sing along...I'm a dork! ;) |
After dinner, I declare the kitchen closed. Lights off, no more being served.
When all else fails, go to bed. Tomorrow will be better! |
Something I found that works really well is to put white strips on your teeth. You get a whiter smile and don't feel like eating.
|
Surf the web
Sew Do Laundry (which means going downstairs for me) |
talking a walk, reading a good book, or my favorite, reading 3FC!!
