stop eating when I'm bored

Easy fix—don’t allow myself to get bored.

I try to occupy my time, even when there is nothing I NEED to be doing. Reading or just playing on the computer helps the boredom snacking problem I have.

I hadn’t really thought about this one for a while, then I suddenly realised thats its just something I’ve moved away from.

I’ve definitely managed to stop snacking so much, I only eat when I’m hungry and not when I’m bored these days. I think maybe exercising more has helped, plus simply distracting myself when I feel like grabbing a bar of chocolate. I still crave certain foods when I’m not hungry (egg fried rice, chips, chocolate…) but I try and make sure none of them are kept in the house!

i do it all the time and it probly isnt healthy …ill brb im gonna go grab a cookie

i only eat when i’m hungry or craving something now. 4 small meals a day and lots of gum and water inbetween and i’m actually losing weight! i dont even eat when i get upset anymore, i just clean. and not only does cleaning take my mind off of why i was upset, i feel accomplished afterwards and not guilty because i ate junk.

good luck everyone with this goal, it’s totally worth it.

i get disturbed colon, when i am psychologically disturbed and it hurts really bad! and i guess that eating calms it down! isn’t it?
it seems i will never stop eating when i am bored and disturbed too!

i totally do that haha
and i REALLLY hate myself when i do.

I have never been this big in my life! I continue to put things in my mouth over and over, knowing that I don’t need to be eating. Why do I do this? It’s almost like I eat because I have nothing better to do. I’m bored. Mostly at work because I sit behind a desk all day. I want to commit to losing 50lbs this year, that’s only 4lbs per month, or 1lb per week! Who can’t do THAT?! I lose more than a pound a day at times, but the problem is that it’s not true weight, not true fat, but just water weight…I have to keep off that pound and lose another…each week. I have certainly found that I can GAIN atleast a pound a week, why can’t I LOSE a pound a week?! Well, that all stops right now! And what better time to get this started than the first week in January?!

Omgshh hey everybody I’m Klairuh. I’m not really fat or anything but i’m do have really fat lower abs because i eat constanty when i’m not even nessasarily hungry and I’m sure if i don’t stop eating when i’m bored before college i will be huge because i seriously can’t seem to control myself. It roots back to i used to have to stay with my grandma alot and she’d force feed very fattening food and make me lay down and eat candy and ice cream and chips and tub after tub after tub of pure butter and crisco and greese and all kinds of things i would stay with her a week and never come home any less than 10 pounds heavier (usually more like 15 or 20) then my mom would make me diet and exercise and the weight came off much slower than it came on. so thats why i still struggle with over eating how are you guys quiting??

I’ve been so much better at this…well better to say that I haven’t been eating just because I’m bored.

totally working since my 3 meals a day goal. not wanting food when im bored because i can only eat 3 meals a day and one snack. so i dont even think about eating food unless its meal time. yay! I’m not ready to mark it as completed though, lets go on one more month and see if i can keep this up, even though I can’t imagine letting go of it because its so easy! i thought it would be so hard!
