I find if I keep my hands busy I don't shove food in my mouth.  I usually knit but have found a really fun way to stay busy and not eat.  Coloring books  Come on, who doesn't remember how much fun it was to color when we were a kid.  I loved getting a new coloring book and crayons when I was a kid.  

Check this out.  Adult coloring  Great way to stay busy and not eat.  Great for stress eating too

I totally agree! I just got one and a collection of colored pencils. I'm having revision surgery on June 19th and I'm hoping it helps keep my mind off things.

Got an inappropriate mental picture when I read "Adult coloring".
