    Get up, go outside, and find a bug, a pebble and a flower. Right now. :smile:

    well, I got the bug part already...apparently a tiny ugly spider hitched a ride in my hair back in the building when I came in from break....it fell onto my desk when I was taking my headphones off about 30 minutes later....*shivers* that was gross

    Spiders aren't gross, they're cute. I'll bet that spider's mom finds him adorable.

    WhHat color is your pebble?

    OMG I have been the same way!! I've been having to force myself to stay away from snacks. Everytime I want a snack I drink 3 glasses of water within a short amount of time. If I'm still hungry, I allow myself something small. I'm usually so full from all that water I the thought of wanting to eat makes me want to throw up!

    I know what you mean. I am unemployed so I am stuck at home. Drives me crazy. I am bored out of my mind. I can only read, exercise and watch tv for so long. I have made a rule not to eat in front of the tv or computer. I'm downing water and diet soda like crazy. I am guessing it will pass. I haven't been on an eating plan where you can eat real food so I am not sure what to expect. I assume the hunger (if it is really hunger) will pass in a week or so. I am trying to keep occupied by writing and playing games and reading articles on line.

    I couldn't find a PEBBLE but I saw medium sized rocks in the pond beside the building....and there are really pretty flowers out back. I wish my yard was as green as the grass here...its soft and fluffy looking lol

    When I get the munchies I either A) Give in. Sometimes the only way to rid temptation is to give in. (Not motivating, I know and I'm sorry!) Or B) Drink water until I want to puke.

    Sugarfree gum helps me with my eating cravings. I hope you can find something to help!

    I love Casper O's idea!!! I'm going to do it at home, haha! But I'm in an office.... so I keep packs of gum on my desk for when I can't fight it with things like Casper O's idea.... sometimes I go through a pack in a day.... but it's better than tons of food!

    I chew Orbit White Bubblemint flavor like it's going out of style :) It seems to help, I pop one in it seems like every 20 minutes in between meals/snacks! Plus, I'm whitening my teeth at the same time! :)

    It's just self distraction. The first thing she said was "I'm bored",,, Well there you go, you're bored, so apparently you aren't doing anything - or at least not doing anything interesting. So go do something interesting, and then you won't be bored.

    Bug & rocks & flowers are interesting. Sometimes I find a bug, and then try to find some kind of plant he'll eat and try to serve him lunch. It's all good,,, :smile:
