    I am a bored eater. I have learned to bargain with myself. For example if I want to eat and it's not a meal time I will make myself drink a whole glass of water first. Or I will chew a stick of gum for 30-60 minutes. And if I'm still really wanting to eat, then I'll go ahead and eat. This might help out a bit? Also, you could also make yourself go for a 10 minute walk first. A lot of times getting up and moving helps and if you still want to eat after that, sweet, you burned off a few calories anyway.

    Great info folks... good stuff! I stumbled into this topic because I have the exact same problem as the original poster. Love some of these ideas, and looking forward to giving some of them a try.

    BTW, I am a new MFP user (kinda... I signed up a long time ago but am only now starting to use it). I'm looking for some friends to motivate and to help motivate me! Feel free to add me if you'd like :)
