    umm i worked out instead of eat. so we distract ourselves. but the hunger is still there. i had to get gall bladder surgery because of it though. extreme diet changes destroys your stomach. put that in your paper.

    Yes I do. I chew and spit food when I'm starving, or drink a glass of water when i get hungry.

    Or sometimes I put hot sauce on my tongue. I also brush my teeth to distract myself from eating.

    yes, they do. the key to not giving in to hunger is by distracting themselves.
