At times like this I have found that drinking water with lemon juice added helps me (beware you will have to pee like a water hose), also I chew gum constantly throughout the day. I could probably bite through stainless steel at this point! haha! Things will get better, and it will be easier along the way. You can make it through this!!0

Are you at work? Try to take a few minute break and walk-stretch some type of movement. Grab some water.
Last night I was bored...wasn't hungry, but bored...I wanted to eat something...I didn't. I just have to remind myself that I wasn't hungry...I didn't need any food.
I'm an emotional, bored, stress eater. It is a nasty cycle...but you can do it!
REMEMBER THAT YOU ARE WORTH IT!!! THIS IS YOUR TIME TO FOCUS ON YOU!!!0 -
when I am stressed something crunchy helps--baby carrots, raw cauliflower or almonds. Hang in there.0

I usually drink water or hot tea when I get like that. Sometimes coffee. A woman at work has coffee thats over 150 calories due to all the milk and sugar she puts in. As long as that isnt what you do to your coffee I have found coffee tides me over the best if I need to have something until my next meal or snack. I only use such a small amount of skim milk and equal that its only 10 calories. Im lucky i prefer the taste of it that way.0

I find when I'm hungry I get my hands busy and chew or suck on a piece of ice. It really helps! I am the same way about the eating, I stress get emotional or bored, so I started subbing out the food for ice or zero calorie gum it helps. Pick up a hobby that will help with it as well. I cross stitch to help.0
