this is Lorna not Duncan, firstly :-) He leaves his account logged in and I'm too lazy to log him out... I realise someone with an eating disorder is not a great person to offer advice, but for wot it's worth here's mine:
why don't you try having snacks like crunchy carrots / veggies around, which may not be so satisfying, but are at least something to be chewing on when watching TV...
or... drinking diet coke instead of snacking? Fills you up... Needn't be diet coke, any drink would do. Low calorie ribena is better for you, I guess...
It's an obvious and depressing one, but there's always the option of not having snack food in the house at all?

Hope either of these might be helpful.
