About TV snacking
Why can’t I snack “mindfully” on the couch?
Screens steal attention. Portions disappear. A pause before you start beats perfect mindfulness mid-episode.
What if snacking is part of movie night?
Then choose it on purpose — Smaller portion or Ate it anyway. Autopilot is the issue, not joy.
What should I choose after the check?
Skipped it, Not now, Smaller portion, or Ate it anyway — all count if you decided on purpose. There is no wrong button.
Does this work for streaming on a phone?
Yes — same mobile-first tool. Open it before the snack, not after.
