[fast5] Tricks to help not eat outside of the window

The best thing is to immerse your mind in satisfying work or engrossing entertainment, something that keeps your mind off of food.

I notice that execise keeps me from being hungry. I work at home, so I am fortunate to have some flexiblity with my time. I get up and drink tea and work in the early am. Anywhere from 11 am to 2 pm I get hungry, and then I take an exercise break. The exercise makes me not so hungry somehow.

Another tactic, is that when I am hungry, if I sart cooking something that takes time. So if my eating window opens at 5:00 and I am hungry at 4:00, if I start cooking something that takes an hour.... somehow knowing that the food is started cooking helps calm me down. This doesn't work if the recipe needs that you taste the food as you are cooking. Am I right, once you taste the food your eating window begins....

Also, some of the supplements I take have to be taken half an hour before I eat. So I take the supplement, and I have to wait a half hour longer before I eat....

Any other tips?
