Has anyone else tried to eat mints, or gum? When my belly feels sick, I just eat an Altoid, and it helps a lot!

I was hooked on sugar free breath mints for awhile (I was eating them when I was craving food), but I started eating so many (like a box of them a day) that I recently gave them up. Even though there are very few calories in one of them, I was probably taking in A LOT more calories than I thought because I was eating so many. But if you can control yourself, it should be OK...
