So what always kills me is just wanting to keep eating even though I'm not hungry per say... today I've been really wanting to eat but right now I only have healthy foods in my room so it hasn't been too much of a problem.

share your stories on how you avoid the munchie monster!!!

I drink a cup of green tea. It switches turns away my munchies and hunger monster!!

lol get out of the house and do something that strays you away from the food

the only way i can avoid munchies is if I cut out junky, sugary, processed-carb-type stuff out of my diet as much as I can, and try to stick to fruit for the most part. That seems to curb the munchies for me.

but when I'm totally craving something, I'll just have a little of it, otherwise I won't be able to stop thinking about it.

When I get the munchies at night I take a bath and go to bed ... During the day it's a whole different story ... I chew gum, I don't go near the kitchen... I get out of the kitchen right after a meal if I feel the need to continue eating, DH gets to do the dishes
