That way you will stay away from the food and be active which will help you gain muscle and lose fat

Write in your Dairy or call friends on the phone, pet your cat,dog, hamster, whatever fur pet you have in the house I do the lazier on the flashlight with my second cat. Put the timer for 15 miuntes that will help you from craving. Do walking, running, that will get boradness out. clean up the yard, gardening. helps, biking scoctering, rolling sakting, hikeing, jumping jacks, sit and up reachs, soft ball, scocer, horse back riding if your family can afforid, tennis, mile run, all this will make you less borad, and they will help you lose weight.

I also eat when I'm bored..alot. I know how hard it is.My advice is exercise. It has really helped me alot. If you feel like you are bored and going for food, try finding something that turns your attention away from food

Ht. 5'10, Wt. 225 - HEY everyone...i figured somthing out today.....i eat when i am bored...it kinda weird but i just started my summer jon and i am so busy all the time that i dont even think about eating. I took a case of water and put it under my desk and some weight watchers food just in case....but i found out that usually i dont want to eat anything... so i guess i am a boredom eater...does this happen to any body else? if so what do u do to avoid eating just out of boredom?

I'm trying to break the habbit of eating out of boredom myself. Over break I just stay one the computer or active so I don't over eat. Like today I'm going camping. I will be camping until sunday. Just getting out and keeping busy keeps me from over eating.

Start: 177 lb, Today: 165 lb - I'm just posting this because i'm proud, and some very simple tips. At the beginning of the summer i weighed in at 177 pounds. I hated myself, i had this huge stomach, and it was just awful. Well over the summer i decided i wanted to try to lose weight, so i just didn't eat as much. It's all about self control. Usually i gain 10 to 20 pounds over summer, that's because when i'm bored i would just eat. Well this summer i just would go do something else if i was bored, and not snack. I just weighed myself today, expecting to see 180 or something, but to my delight i saw 165! I lost 12 pounds this summer! Self control is the key.

Help me! I can't stop eating! I want to lose weight and my brain says lose weight but I can't stop eating! Does anyone know anything that helps???? I am a pig and I don't want to be anymore, whenever I get bored I eat. I just can't stop, someone tell me what to do!!!!

The first thing you need to tell your self is that you are not a pig, no matter how bad you believe it. Eating is a natural pleasure to humans, so thats why we tend to do it when we get bored. Before you pick up something to eat, ask yourself if you are really hungry or just bored. If you are hungry, dig in, but if not, go do something to get your blood flowing like use a jump rope, or go dance in your room. If you are to tired then treat yourself to a manicure or go read a magazine, anything to keep your mind away from eating. A lot of people make lists of things they like to do and when they are bored they put the list to work. You have an amazing amount of power in you, you just have to use it. Know that someone out here believes in you(corny i know but true none the less:)

i know what you mean. with all this extra time on your hands what else is there to do but mingle in front of the fridge? over the holidays this is the perfect time to test yourself, play little games with yourself. ask yourself, can i go a whole week with out eating a single bag of chips? (anything will work if you like it enough) set yourself a goal and if you reach that goal give yourself a big reward. the next week, make it harder, say, no chips and no soda and no lollies. make a big deal out of it, mark it on the calendar with a fat red marker. i played this game last holidays and it works!!!!! i didnt gain a single kilo, but i did keep exercising, so that would have played a big part, hope this works as well as it has for me with you, keep me posted
