To cope with hunger, try drinking water or decaffeinated tea, which helps to reduce your appetite. You can also chew gum, breath mints, or sugar-free hard candies, since chewing on something can help trick your brain into thinking you’re eating. Another good way to deal with hunger is to distract yourself from thinking about it. Try reading something, talking to a friend, or doing some work. Being active can also help you to forget about your hunger, so try going for a walk or doing some exercise.
