I always like to eat when I am sitting in front of my computer. This is my bad habit,I suppose this will have some bad impacts on my digestive system. But it seems like I am enjoying it. I like to munch snacks,junk food when surfing or watching movies online. I only stop munching when I am mylotting because I need to concentrate on my fingers when I am typing. How about you? Are you having the same habit as me? Do you like to eat when you are doing something with your computer? Please share your opinions here. Thanks for viewing my discussion. Have a nice day.

Well I am on the computer a lot so yeah, when I am hungry I just go grab a quick bite or a snack, bring it with me and continue on with whatever I was doing on the computer while occasionally munching on something.

Guilty as charged! I eat breakfast, lunch and dinner whilst I am surfing the computer, well it helps the old brain doesn't it munching and keeping your sugar levels up, it's hard work surfing the net, hungry and thirsty work too. Trouble is my keyboard always suffers for it and it's not the first time I have spilt things onto it and when the keys start sticking! I think the keyboard must get hungry too, crumbs are the worst thing and I have to clean my keyboard regularly.

I'm only eat a small portion of snack while surfing if my stomach rumbling. I know we, internet addict, are bothered if we have to leave our chair and having heavy meal instead. But maybe we should consider taking some healthy snack instead junk one, and start leaving this bad habbit.

Lolz. I do this everyday. After taking a bath in the morning, I went to the diner table and get some break fast. After that, I went to my computer and read manga or mylotting. Lolz. And when I arrived in the evening I do it again.

I sometimes eat while I am at my computer. Lately I have kind of slack off from it because I am afraid I will drop or spill something on my computer. its nothing wrong with it, you just have to be careful.

I don't like to eat whilst surfing because I need to look up and type with both of my hands LOL I tried it before and I was in such a frenzy I spilt stuff everywhere and was cursing loudly. In the end I believe I was stricken with indigestion.

I do like to eat sometimes especially when I'm hungry. But I have to be careful about what I eat. Cereal and bread is fine. But I can't eat chips because the pieces would fall onto my laptop and it would be very hard to clean after. I also avoid eating anything that would make my fingers oily. I don't like making my computer dirty because I don't like to clean it so I choose mess-free snacks.

I don't prefer eating while surfing or working on my computer. I do it if I am very busy. There is chance that the liquid food items may fall on your keyboard and will spoil it for ever. If you are using any oily food then the stain will remain. So its better to avoid having or keeping food items near to your computer. but using fruits is better if you are hungry.

To tell you the truth, I don't like to eat in front of my computer. Because I will forget to eat if I watch the computer.I don't know why,I just want to concentrate on my computer and don't want to do anything,also I think it is a bad habbit because I always don't have lunch or dinner.

Yeah, i dont have this bad habit,and i can not operate my PC if i take some food into my tooth.But,when i am watching movie online i would get some food to snack and enjoy myself.My advance to you is you can deal with your situation by yourself,if you are connacting with your friends online you should put heart into your friendship or topic;then if you are watching movie ,enjoy yourself!

Yes, I like to eat when I am using the computer like checking email and other websites that I go to. And even when I am relisting my items that did not sell on my ebay auction. I always have a soda with me at the computer.

Of course... I will eat while browsing.... even now I am having my morning coffee... i can't simply look the computer and search something on internet or giving responses to discussions on MyLot.... I want my mouth to chew something... Like a Cow... Eating something while browsing will make much sense... and will create lot of interest about the topic...

Well, I like to eat all the time :), but I try to not eat while I'm at the computer simply because I spend so much time there. If I were to eat every time I was at the computer, I would be too fat too leave the house! :)
