This book is pretty much just a list of distractions for a person to do instead of eat.To some people a book like this might be invaluable in breaking that mindset of 'I'm bored, lets eat' by giving them something else to concentrate on for a few minutes and to get over the fact that they were not really eating because they were hungry, but because it was a habit instead.The activities in this book are organised under different types such as 'Household Hobbies', 'Preventative Measures', and 'Pass the Time'. In my opinion, some of the activities were a little bit 'out there' and not really all that achievable in a moment of weakness if you need to break the cycle of eating through boredom. Some of them would take quite a bit of forward planning to actually do but there were still quite a few good ideas in amongst them for those that need that little extra bit of motivation at short notice.Overall, if you're in need of a bit of inspiration or new ideas of things to do to keep you busy and your mind off food, this is a cute little book to have on hand and flick through whenever needed.
