What do you do to curb boredom eating? For me, this is new. I have never ever been a boredom eater, but now that I have a baby, I find myself doing it a lot I have 4 hours a day (naptime) that I can't leave the house and I can't make too much noise (clean) because it's a tiny apartment and it wakes him up. So what do I do? I eat. And I'm so used to eating whatever I want, whenever I want, because that's what I did for the last 9 months before.
Can someone help with ideas? I really don't want to come here necessarily during that time because I don't want to think about or read about food/weight, etc. I do go to the gym 4x a week and I do walk the dog when the baby's awake, but when the baby's asleep, I find myself snacking constantly! I am not *gaining* from it but I am certainly eating my planned deficit daily (my goal is 1600 calories)
Any book suggestions that refer to boredom eating? Thanks
