BUT i do know there are a few things one can do to help stop this bad habbit. DONT keep food in your room or anywhere for that matter, besides the kitchen. Dont have little snacks or anything in your bag. Cuz then you will find yourself eating them cuz youre bored, not hungry. And never eat anything from a bag, like chips, put an alotted amount into a bowl and eat just that. And dont eat anywhere bisides the kitchen, or restaurant, of youre out. If there is a TV in your kitchen, turn it off. Eating is its own thing, not to be confused with other things. And remember this fact, your body tells you "Im full" 20 minutes after you are really full. So essentially you keep filling yourself even after your stomach is really full. You can try to help this by eating slowely- cuz remember the food is not going anywhere, you can take your time eating it. OR you can follow some of the diet things that tell you how a big a portion really is, and stop, cuz supposedly you will get full later, but that never worked for me. Ok, i hope these few things helped you out!
