Life is full of gratifying options that won’t leave you feeling guilty afterward." Great advice! I typically spend hours every day sitting at my computer looking up news and information, and I too often snack constantly while at the computer. I've tried to break that habit, and guess what? It works. Surfing and blogging keep my mind occupied, and they are just as satisfying without the snacking. The snacking was just an unnecessary habit that I can easily do without as long as I keep busy. You said:

Maybe we should start a little business ;-) Marc Naomi,

I guess Im blessed in the viewing food as fuel sense----I really dont grow tired of foods. clients Ive worked with? they get "sick of that" and "crave variety" and then it's a downward spiral at times. create structure is a FAB way of phrasing it.

Especially when I'm working at the tills.. one thing really works for that though! it's those pieces of wood, my translator says they should be called liquorice in english, though I thought that was more a candy sort.. Anyway, chewing on one of those sticks works wonders! Definately the same thing as Gerard here, boredom food.

It seems for me it is just a slippery slope downhill and there is no end unless I get outside and exercise.

I guess that means boredom is my strongest emotional trigger, and though eating can be fun, I know I shouldn't eat simply as something fun to do. Funny enough, I don't do the frustrated eating, or the nervous eating, or the angry or sad eating, it's pretty much just the eating out of boredom that gets me.
