If you're at work, surely there's something work related you could be doing to keep busy? That is what you're being paid to do...0

I am this same way.. very much a bored eater. I have to keep myself very busy or very distracted or I blow my calories.
Tell us something you've done that you've never told anyone in your real life.

Hmmm that is a tough one. I guess when i used to work for a big grocery store and it was lunch time i would just pick something out and take it to the break room and eat it with out buying it.
how about you??0 -

Haha! You fiend. I used to work in a grocery store too, and one time my lips were so chapped that I stuck my fingers in a vaseline jar and rubbed it on my lips. Then I put it back.
In our defense, buying the stuff cuts into break time.

to be honest i love me job right now. great pay, great benefits, im really good at it. i just have days like today where nothing big is happening so im a little bored. but if i could go back to school and do anything i would love to be a therapist. But that isnt going to happen right now. so the only thing i would trade this job for would be getting to stay at home with my kids and take on foster parenting0 -

Take very low calorie snacks to munch on. Celery sticks grape tomatoes baby carrots. Blueberries. Strawberries. A Greek yogurt dip to dip it in. Can you get up from your desk every so often and just stretch your legs and walk around for 5 minutes? that may help too.0

When you say talk about anything, to me that means post lots of memes.
