and want to eat, find one small thing to clean instead. We all have areas that could be cleaned better, all it takes is a few minutes to clean out a cabinet, wipe down a sink or some other small dirty area!!

    This is a great idea. I need to be bored a lot at my house. I am trying to not eat just to eat like I used to. I used to eat a lot when I was bored. trying to make better choices.

    I do this. I get bored very easily. I have two small kids though so something always needs to be cleaned haha :D

    When I am bored and stuck to the house my current habit is always to clean. It's automatic for me so this works out! I actually forget to eat most times and then I end up eating too much too late in the day.

    Great idea!! Boredom is my calorie killer!! Any other ideas? I have depression and lately have been in a depressive episode. I need small tasks to take up my boredom. Cleaning that much sounds so exhausting to me

    Oh yes, this works. I am always cleaning/sweeping/picking up something. Much better for you than channel surfing.
