Finding that you're reaching for things to nosh on, not because you're actually hungry, but because you're bored [1]? Whether it's something salty and crunchy or sweet and creamy, Julie Upton, MS, RD, of Appetite For Health [2] recommends having three go-to distracters for whenever a craving strikes, so you can get your mind off food and on something else. Have a great book at the ready on your ereader, have your iPod handy with your favorite songs, or take a peek at your favorite online shopping site. If you can distract yourself for 10 minutes, the craving often passes.
