How can I stop binge eating when I'm at work?

I'm 22 and work in the bar industry, my problem is that when I'm doing a long shift at work I tend to eat lots through sheer boredom which is not helping as I am trying to shift 1/2 a stone and feel like this is ruining all my hard work at the gym. Any ideas how i can stop being so gutsy?

    lots of possibilities here -
    don't work (no work no eating at work)
    keep busy at work-i'm sure your employers will tell you there's always something to do ( as an ex landlady i know there is work to do when there are no customers!)
    don't take food to work
    keep your mouth closed
    at 22 there must be more excitng ways to stop the boredom
    chat up the customers
    invite your pin up to the bar
    take up crossword puzzles
    substitute alcohol for food ( second thoughts probably better not to)
    bite your nails - toes included
    bite your customers - good if your a vampire
    take up knitting
    oh! sod it - just carry on and get fat!

    Try an appetite depressant.
