Abstract
Apparatus for distracting a user from an unwanted impulse, such as an impulse to eat, having an elastic bracelet to be stretched and then released at once upon feeling the unwanted impulse by the user, thereby snapping the user, resulting in causing pain to the user, thereby distracting the user from the impulse. The stretching may be carried out each time to the same level. The level may be indicated by an indicator capable of registering only a certain stretching level of the bracelet. The stretching may be to any desired level. The stretching level may be determined using a gauge.
