while most of the world are in hunger, i am like in the mood to eat and eat like there's no tomorrow. i am supposed to be on a diet because my brother in law is getting married in two months, but now i can't seem to stop myself from eating. what is going on with me??? sigh...i wish i know... i am not sure if i am pregnant either. maybe just pms. maybe some hormonal imbalance. sigh, i dunno. i wish i do at least i can know how to better manage and control the situation. this bingeing is taking its toll on my weight and my budget. lol but i can't seem to stop eating. and mostly junk food...that is what i am craving for. grrr... okay, gotta go for now. i just finished a jumbo burger and soda. ohhh...this is not good.....gotta go take a warm bath. good day guys!

good for you!at least you don't have to take vitamins to have good appetite!lol!i think if you don't want to look bulge on your brother in law's wedding, you need to impose a little discipline to yourself. craving is all in the mind. if you set your mind into something, you will look for it but if you'll try to divert yourself into something else, you will forget about craving for foods. a little self discipline is all you need to answer your problem right now. have it..

I agree with you. Spoiled may do somethings like to transfer her attention, and when she eats, low down the speed may let her feel full with less food. In addition, it also can be the results of anxiety, so relax herself may also help.

Whoa ! Well I just hope that your diet would be continued so that you can look better in your Brother in law's wedding. But anyway, perhaps a day of eating like that won't affect your dieting. I too have that craving at times, i force myself to eat less than the usual since I am diabetic, but there are days that the urge to enjoy eating is sometimes strong.

i find that people that tend to over eat, eat much too fast. try and train yourself to eat much slower and this will help because you will feel fuller faster. i eat twice as slow as my hubby does!

I did that when Im attending a party. My friends call me greedy ,but I ignored them. I dont care as long as my stomach is full. No body knows when we gonna pass in this world,so you better die with full stomach than to die empty stomach.

When you diet, your mind just fixates on food. Just plan on eating healthy and forget about dieting. Eat healthier and plan for a 'treat'. On Sunday I will go out and enjoy (put your heart's desire here) and then I will eat healthy again. The next Sunday, I will have...... Plan on treats don't ban them.

Oh no! I am so like you! I am so guilty of this. At the start of the day, I'd tell myself, I would eat less today --- then I'd end up eating a lot.. and regretting it afterwards! And I actually hate that feeling. It's like I abused my body or something. Sure, it must be hormonal or something. Most of the time, I ust reassure myself that I would do better the next day....

So, to avoid such, I will stay in the garden and work a lot there..then bring plenty of cold water so that there is no room for food..It helps sometimes! LOL! But, when I refuse to go out and just stay in the couch, I will be eating like forever!

Your eating problem can be explained very easily. The food we eat now-a-days is not as nutritious as the food of the past. And each year are food becomes less and less nutritious. Being raised on a farm I have an understanding that most people don't have. It only takes what are called macro nutrients and CO2 from the atmosphere to grow food, however, it takes macro nutrients, CO2 from the atmosphere and a good compliment of micro nutrients to grow nutritious food full of vitamins enough to satisfy our body's cravings. It is quite simple my dear, if your body does not get the nutrition it needs it will crave food to get it. We can make or mine the macro nutrients Nitrogen, Potassium, and Phosphorous. The atmosphere provides the Carbon which is the building blocks of life, however, without the micro nutrients that give our food nutrition we will crave more food. I know it sounds strange to hear that we have obese people who are malnourished but that is the case in North America and maybe other parts of the world. It works like this; we keep taking micro-nutrients from the land and not recycling them. Those micro-nutrients we take from the soil are flushed and sent to the nearest waterway. If you live in Detroit your micro-nutrients go into the St. Claire River, and if you live in Toronto they go into Lake Ontario, and if you live in New York City they go into the Atlantic Ocean and in LA those nutrients go into the Pacific Ocean and so on and so on. We can not continue to take micro nutrients from the soil without replacing and you my dear are experiencing the results of eating food without nutrition, or self imposed starvation. Hope this helps.

well u might not be pregnant because protection is very easy and compulsory these days and i have also gone through this condition and this is not what really you are saying but this is due to infection or germs in your stomach and the extra junk foood which you are eating is not consumed by you but by the germs inside your stomach it is genral and nothing to worrry abour it if you cotinue your medications consulting your doctor you will easily get cured just within two to three days

Hi spoiled, Perhaps you are eating so much because you are a little anxious about the upcoming wedding, sometimes these sorts of things can lead to a person acting in different ways than the norm due to nervousness or other psychological factors, you should perhaps try changing your junkfood to good food when you get these urges and hopefully after the wedding things will get back to normal for you.

Go to the store right now and get some Go Lean Chewy Bars, they kick appetites like no other. I eat one and I wasn't hungry for about 4 hours. My favorite flavour is Peanut Butter and Chocolate. Go try it, it's sooo good. It's like eating a granola bar and candy bar at the same time. It's really good.
