Do you ever eat out of boredom? I got up at 5am had cookies with my coffee, now i switched to beer and potato chips. While i'm eating those i think about lunch, All because i have nothing to do on this gloomy sunday. Do you eat out of boredom?

yeah i eat a lot when i dont do anything at all. it kills boredom. and we have almost all the fattening food in our kitchen. wish i'd gain weight in doing so.

I do eat when I get bored, especially when watching some movies at home. When reading, I also eat some snacks. I feel that this will make me awake. Don't eat something too heavy as it will get you to sleep. Sweets will be nice as a little bit of glucose get you more energetic. I always have sweets around me. :)

Sometimes I do but not that often. I never have time to be bored since I have two young ones.

boredom could really lead you to over eating or not eating at all... you should do something to lessen it.. either find physical activities that can change your mood.

No! Thats like THE WORST thing person can do for themselfs, their helth etc. Even for people around them. So no i never do that, but on the other hand, im barely hungry when i should eat...i guess i could eat when im bored but there is SO meny other things you can do at that times.

I used to smoke out of boredom. But now I am able to quit that habit as some times I used to smoke nonstop.
