  • Water. Not constant, just enough to sip on throughout the day. Sugar-free gum. And things that you can do with your hands. I'm hugely fixated on doing things with my hands, and usually that would lead to me consuming something. However, I've gotten more into crafting lately, and have been doing things like pixel art,…
