Listening to music should be ok. Listen to some soothing light music. Even if you can't lose weight, you can relax and calm yourself down. You can lose weight if you are in a good mood! But the most effective way is reasonable exercise and moderate diet, eat more foods with high fiber content such as fruits and vegetables, and drink porridge before eating a big meal, so that the fat can be wrapped up and will not be absorbed too much by the stomach.

As for reading, I hate the thought of reading some horror novels that make that person vomit with bloody violence, so that you are not in the mood to eat and will not get fat! Ha ha O(∩_∩)O!
