If you absolutely have to do something...I always get a life water from sobe. They are very sweet, but have no calories or artificial flavors, and it's sweetened with stevia (all natural sweetener). They are so delicious, and if I just sip them I can almost imagine I'm eating something sweet. If that doesn't help, I do sit ups or push ups whenever I want to eat something. I think we eat just becuase we're bored and if we do something else it'll make you feel better about not eating it and it'll help you work out more. I also have the hardest time not eating sweets and junk food when I'm watching tv. I'm a bored eater.
