A member asked:
What about television makes you want to eat?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Distraction: When you watch tv you are exposed to commercials for high calories foods. If you eat in front of the tv your body is not as tuned into the cues that signal that you are getting full. Tv also is a very sedentary activity that involves using very few calories.
