i know how you're feeling because i have the same problem. try to keep yourself doing something that involves your hands at all times, that way you won't be so bored, therefore less inclined to eat. puzzles, typing and other things that keep your brain occupied are great too. ]
haha i have the same problem.... i eat when im bored. it's not a good habbit but i cant help it! lately.. since the holidays.. i have been trying to run.. it works every muscle in the body and is good for burning calories. another thing is water. if you drink a lot of water... it could just be water weight. you can gain up to 5 pounds of water weight! but it's good for you.. helps keep your system running! ]
The only thing I've been able to find that works is to find something else to do. Or, if I'm not sure if I'm still hungry or just craving, I'll tell myself that if I still want whatever it is in twenty minutes, I'll have it. Usually I've forgotten by then.
Light exercise can really help with cravings. Not only does it distract you, but it can also quell your appetite (although for some people, it does the opposite, so beware). Even playing an adrenaline-pumping computer game, or getting involved in reading or homework or anything else can distract you from eating.
I feel your pain, I really do. I've had MAJOR issues with cravings and weight gain because of it. I think to a certain degree it will always be a struggle, but if you set your mind to it, and have plans in mind, more often than not, you'll beat the cravings. ]
