Some useful tips to stop thinking about eating:
Ask yourself if I'm really hungry or just bored.
Drinking water continuously throughout the day makes you not feel hungry.
Drink hot or cold drinks that do not contain sugar.
Do not start your day with sweets or carbohydrates so as not to make you gluttonous to eat throughout the day, as eating sweets at the beginning of the day raises blood sugar in the body, which makes us feel hungry constantly.
Don't buy unhealthy foods and sweets and be in front of your eyes constantly, which makes you crave food all day.
Exercise and get busy with something fun to do during the day.
