I've been on vacation for a week and a half (or, stay-cation, if you will). Doing fine today - had only about six hundred calories, and not even hungry for dinner. Then came a boredom bottle of whiskey, boredom pizza, and boredom pie :\

    Yep. Sounds like a new hobby is in order. What sort of things do you enjoy? Other than boredom food, of course. ;)

    Meh, whatever. My hobby is lifting weights or sitting on my butt playing guitar. Maybe you just need one glass of boredom whiskey, a couple slices of pieces, and a slice of pie.

    I took up knitting the first time I lost weight. Gave me something to do with my hands while I was relaxing so I didn't feel inclined to snack. And when I had spent a fair bit on some nice yarn i especially didn't want to risk getting my knitting dirty with food crumbs. :smile:

    I did arm knitting. Got tangled up and had to keep starting over. I will use knitting needles next time. I play chess, guitar and harmonica, but I love working out. I need another hobby too.

    I've thought about taking up knitting. I used to be really into video games and sculpting with polymer clay, but nothing seems to hold my interest these days. Except for cooking, that is :smiley:

    Well... if you like cooking, what about baking for your local firehouse? They WILL notice if part of the pie is missing btw, so don't even think of sneaking a taste.

    I took up taking movement classes
    1. anything that was offered at my gym,
    2. any studios offering free intros to anything that sounded interesting (on my list right now is the free cross-fit class offered at Reebok)
    3. Dance classes: Ballet, Salsa, Flamenco (I never took these as a kid)
