So I am back at it, starting fresh again. I am a high volume foodie so even a small calorie reduction causes crankiness, stomach growling, whining, lets just say I am not pleasant to be around. This first week back was rough but successful and I'm adjusting. To distract from overindulging and excessive snacking I've tried drinking a ton of water, tea, coffee, broth, loading up on veggies, more protein, chewing gum, all the tricks. My new distraction is housework, dust a room, clean the bathroom, clean a window, organize a closet, I can literally eat off my floor it's spotless in here.
Any other good tips or tricks you have found helpful in your journey?

Keeping busy is a great alternative to snacking. I find if I'm busy, actually busy, not social media busy, I don't want to snack. Drinking water is also a great way to keep yourself full without loading up on calories.3
