We use ほど in nagative sentences. For example, わたしはちちほどせがたかくない。This sentence means "I'm not as tall as my father." or, "I'm not taller than my father." But in the latter sentence, I would say わたしはちちよりせがたかくない。
But I think you're pretty good at using ほうが. Just remember to add こと after the verb when you want to say doing something (for example, "eating", which is in your 4th sentence p, will be たべること).
MEMO
Not as ~ as; ほど ~ nagative ending.
Not -er than; より ~ negative ending.
-er than; ~より …のほうが positive ending.
