What can I do when I'm bored so I don't overeat?

What are some things that I can do so that I don't over eat??? I was doing great today! I ate a healthy breakfast, lunch and dinner and then after dinner I ended up eating a piece of cake even though I really wasn't hungry, I was just bored. So what can I do so I don't get bored and eat?

I usually over-eat in the evenings.. so I try and have a bath.. and I do the whole shave/wash hair/exfoliate/nails thing.. and when I'm hungry.. I try drinking a redbush tea with honey.. or a herbal tea.. or even a cuppa soup

Either that or find a buddy online to make a healthy diary with.. and every time you resist temptation you can both make an entry in the diary and give yourself a pat on the back
And that way you can keep track of what your eating habits are. The more you eat junk food.. the more you want it. If you resist it for a few days.. you wont want it any more

Exercise, eat a piece of fruit or yogurt. Try not to have junk food in the house.

go for a run around the block, it takes my mind off of food, but I also give myself manicures and pedicures which I pretty time consuming, and if neither of those work, I just sleep =]

I like to call my friends and chat, do a lil workout, watch a lil tv, listen to some music, eat fruits and lil snacks, go outside and do some shopping:D, daydream, and yeahs~

I struggle with the same problem I gained 20 pounds since the hollidays and I fell like I am hungry all the time so when I am bored its even worse. so what I do is find a substitude I pray or you can eat some thing healthy like carrots or fruit or read a book .
