Do I Have Issues Or What?

You are pg, dear. When I was pg the first time I was so sick that every time I thought about food, I ran for the bathroom. But there were two more after that and food was almost always on my mind for most of it. Here is a crazy story for you (and it might help explain why I am so weird). When my mom was pg with me, she craved vanilla ice cream with pickle juice. Yep, she poured the juice right over top. The strangest part was she developed a taste for it and continued to eat it every once in a while for the rest of her life. She tried to get me to try it a couple of times,but I just couldn't. As for the professional help, don't think it would do any good, you have children. lol

Forgive me for asking but are you on a diet?If so, that could be the reason.If not, all it means is you love food.There isn't anything wrong with that as long as it doesn't take over your life.

I think we all have days like that. Sometimes I will have a whole 3 or 4 days or even a week. Of course, with me, it's not just thinking about the food. I have a tendency to eat it too!

oh come on you are not fair. You are pregnant you can do that (I remember when I was pregnant I would eat so much but I could not hold it down) Yes I have days when I can think of nothing but food. You dont need professional help its the hormons.

I do not blame you at all for telling yourself that you can't get over your eating food at all. I know you enjoy pizza, ice cream, Chinese, burgers; you name it. I know that you can't live without these kinds of stuff. I would definitely go and seek professional help. I would open up to some great jokes.

Not only do I have days I cant stop thinking about food, I also have days when I cant seem to get enough to eat.

We all go through this and when I have mo bout of it feels irresistible to food - specially junkies.

For many of us, me included, food = love. We eat to fill a hole in the soul. Maybe you need to find out what hole you are trying to fill.

Oh when I was trying to lose weight using the Weight Watcher's point system, I was thinking of food all the time. And all those nice recipes in the magazines with the ingredients I could not afford did not help me that much. Oh I was really hungry then and yet I felt I could not eat or the pounds wound pile up. I found that I did not lose that much, as I still had not lost my appetite. I try to avoid the kitchen as much as possible.

I know exactly what you mean. I have alot of days like that also. I had pizza this morning because i work nights. I could not go to sleep so I am up and I just fried me a hamburger also. I think I feed my nerves alot of times but I am not nervous about anything today that I know of. I think about food all of the time too very often. I wish I didn't. It seems my belly never feels full.

Hello minnie, I guess that is common to every one here! LOL, I also experience that once a month or more often, like whatever I do and wherever I go, my mind is busy and occupied thinking about any FOOD! and I can't stop it, sometimes, i end up cooking something, or end up asking my husband to bring me this and that after his work!LOL!

LOL i dont think, its issue u might be carving to eat variety of food or eager to learn how to cook/made differnt food so it can be passion Dont worry about it

minnie i will have to join you with the professional help.lol,but your pregnant so you have a good excuse,i don't.i wish i did have an excuse because i love my food and lately have been craving certain foods all the time,maybe its our body telling us we need certain types of foods.cheers sue

Oh LOL Minnie..i get ays like that all of the time,im thonking about one meal then on to the next and so it goes on!!..im ok as long as i actually dont start eating ,because then i go from wanting someting sweet to wanting something savoury! Its a hard habit to break i think Minnie,but no you are by no means unusual!!

Oh. this looks very different... Be happy , because you just thinking about food and not other like a baby... only small babies in the world think always abt food. and now you are also in the list.....

I can most definitely relate to this! Maybe not in terms of thinking about food ALL day; but because I have spent the last three years away from my home country, there are foods that I miss sometimes! Funny thing is that it is simple things, like fresh milk; and Tim Tams (chocolate biscuits); and fresh prawns..... It is not all the time I feel this way, but occasionally I get these urges!!

Move over and make room hun, I get days when I can't help but think about food. Sometimes it's just the thought of cooking the evening meal can get me started, other times just the faint smell of frying bacon will get me going.

Hi minnie_98214! i do have those days like that when I can't stop thinking about wanting this kind of food and goodness, while I am craving for it, I could smell it. haha..Just my thoughts. Take care and have a nice day!

Didn't you say that you were pregnant?? Forget the professional help unless they are going to take you out to dinner, just get to the fridge and hope you have enough stash to make it until you can get to the grocery store.. It wouldn't be a serious problem unless it were an everyday occurence.. Have a great day, Donna

This is real weird! Im the total opposite, I haven't eaten a thing today, just coffee. It's like 11pm and I dont think i can handle a bite to eat. I get like that when i stress and i have had a real stressful week, where i feel, everybody hates me. Sounds to me like you may be a real happy person cause when im happy i think about food. I dont think you need professional help, you feel how you feel and that's that.
