Mindless Eating - Alison

I don't know why I do it. I got to be outside all day today on the grill. It was beautiful, sunny, 80 degree weather. Katie, my demo partner for the day, was a lovely compainion and we got to know each other a little better. So, I wasn't sad or bored or tired or lonely or even hungry...but I kept popping pieces of sausage into my mouth. Katie wasn't eating them...just me. I ate the equivalent of a whole sausage link (7 points) in addition to my lunch ( which was complilation of snack foods because I haven't been grocery shopping yet).

Solutions:

1. Arm myself with a better lunch, including high energy mass foods, like fruit.
2. Chew gum or suck on hard candy while demoing so do not have the option of eating.

Any other suggestions?
