Boredom eating!

[MichelleBelle]

Ok one of my problems is eating whan I'm bored. so far I have been combatting this by taking a nice long walk around the park near by. But today it's snowing so I don't want to go outside and now I'm bored!

Help me get rid of the boredom please because the the multipack of quavers I brought as a snack (88 cal per bag ) is looking more and more appealing right now and I could just eat the whole lot!

Paint your nails - you won't want to smudge them by eating and it'll keep your mind vaguely somewhere else! X

Thanks guys, I'm going to combine the 2 activities I finally have the last series of Lost to watch and going to paint my nails while I do it so I'm not tempted to nibble while I'm watching

I sometimes have a problem with boredom binges. Knowing that boredom triggered the negative behaviour helped me get over it. Now when I get bored I either play with my hula hoop or stick on some lively music and dance around the livingroom. Or both! The upside is that you're doing something active and burning calories instead of gaining them. ^^

It's even more fun when you learn tricks! I go to a class on Mondays at a community centre, but there are also some tutorials on YouTube. All great exercise feels like play!
