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.:)

Posting...first line of defense ! Also, foraging for healthy alternatives, like a cup of herbal tea,or a plate full of crunchy raw veggies.

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)
