  • Having a medical problem makes you look a little deeper sometimes.. I've got diabetes and was told the same thing by some people, cut all the carbs out then add back slowly.. NOT RIGHT!!!

  • I know I find it hard when others are eating and I'm not. In the past I've brought something I know I can eat to share and that seems to help. Also like others have said, just having something in your hands can sometimes help. If it's not a sit down thing, get up and walk around to mingle. It's not as self conscious a…

  • Another thing to consider is if you're hydrated enough. Sometimes "hunger" can actually be "thirst" Being very over weight I've noticed that to be the case for me.
