Hi NOBS women! Long time no talk

I could use some ideas/help from the tribe.

I have narrowed down one of my patterns for overeating/over drinking is I eat when I’m restless. It’s a fidget…energy release. (It the HD in ADHD) I’ve found alternatives when I’m sitting and watching tv. But I’m looking for ways I can manage my restlessness when I’m out to dinner, at the bar and/or with friends.

Fiditing with my phone, coloring, knitting, sewing and other things I might do at home (I polished and waterproofed all my leather shoes while watching Tv the other night) might not be as acceptable in other situations.

So, anyone got any ideas of things I could do with my restless hands other then put food and drink into my mouth that won’t seem like I’m not paying attention to others at the table?
