That means no sneaking into the kitchen on commercial breaks and grabbing something. If I am really hungry then I won't mind sitting in the kitchen while I eat it. However if my favorite show is on then I am not going to want to miss it unless I am really really hungry.
I have to admit that we are eat dinner in front of the tv types of people and that has to stop. I am going to extend this rule to say that no food leaves the kitchen. We will eat at the table, snack at the table, and be able to focus on what we are eating. Maybe even get some dinner music to relax to. I am going to run the dinner idea past the husband and I will let you know how the kitchen only snacking works.

A great idea! I don't have a kitchen table anymore...I might need to revisit that.
H =)
I wish I could do that ... sadly our kitchen table faces the TV :( Best of luck with the kitchen eating!
Great tip! I noticed my nighttime snacking is tied up in my tv watching as well. Last night I even PAUSED the commercials to make sure I had enough time to find something to eat *eye roll* So clearly the DVR may be a hinderance on this - but at least I can get the "eating in the kitchen part right"
Hopefully your husband responds better than Tom did! I think we lasted 3 whole meals before we landed back in front of the tv.
