This is a generic list and isn't meant to pertain to anyone in particular. I'm just trying to get the point across that eating isn't the only thing to do with your free time. Everything may not sound awesomely fun, but at least you aren't stuffing your face. They also might not be very active, but it's not like you're *gaining* any calories from them like you would when you are eating! And of course, this is a partial list. You can do whatever you want.

If you've done something for at least 20-30 minutes, and you are still hungry, you may eat. :-) Don't just rush to the kitchen every time the thought strikes you.
