Ok one of my downfalls is fidget eating, when working on the PC say doing data entry I can find myself, eating 4 apples and 2 bags of crips plus lunch in a half-hour period.
In the past I have tried eating sunflower seeds but was wondering what other people do to stop fidget eating.
Thanks in advance
Mostly it depends on whether or not you want to lose weight.
Swapping out snacks for fat doubles the calories, and if you spend your time sitting down, it won't help.
Sunflower seeds are very calorific as well.
Low carb may work if you eat until you are satiated, but not a lot of use if you simply eat for the sake of eating.
I changed my entire relationship with food, (now I can actually walk past the refrigerator).
I had to lose around 5 stone, with the help of the NHS dietician, I did a low fat diet for a year, and kept a strict food diary, so I could see the bad habits.
This mostly worked, but I then finished it will the 800 calorie shake based Newcastle Diet.
That was instrumental in breaking my bad food habits, I literally had a clean slate to start on again.
I won't say I don't snack now, but it tends to be healthy things like carrot sticks.
