So now I am back to eating baby food from little jars

CYNTHI!!! U ARE being a bad girl, lol. I have never eaten baby food in my life. Could hardly stand to give it to the boys when thet were babies except for the fruit of course. I know u were worried about the terrible situation there & Jo being out in the middle of it. I hope things get better soon.

Nope haven't eaten baby food in years! Though I think Gerber makes this blueberry cobbler (I think?) hubby loves... though I forgot about it until you brought this up. There was one I liked as well similar but haven't thought about it for years. Have fun w/ your baby food!-

The fruit baby foods actually taste pretty good. I have not tasted it since my daughter was a baby though. I did not eat any baby food today, but I could see how the fruit desert ones that are pretty sweet could curb a sugar craving.

OK baby food, fine. But if you start eating cat food, I'm going to be seriously worried about you!

ick. no i haven't eaten baby food today, or in fact at all for at least thirty years, i am not sure that it is suitable for adults anyway. why don't you try fruit for your sweet tooth? - will fill you up for longer.

Remember baby food is used to help babies grow and thin is not in for them.If you eat more than the recommended serving size you might as well eat all day. Find another way to curb your emotional eating habits.Nothing is a sure thing that works for all.Choose something that works for you. As for eating baby food they may be safer in the long run because of the less sugar and less preservatives added. My grandmother ate baby food when I was a young girl, she said they didn"t make them when she was young.She ate the deserts but only one jar at a time.

No, I have not eat baby food in some time now. It's actually been years. I did use to like some of them. The fruits and desserts. Like you I found them to be really good. If you must eat why not try eating raw veggies like carrots, broccoli, etc. This is what I do when I find myself in a slump and just must have to eat something but I can not handle the calories. Hummm, speaking of food....I'm hungry now. I think I will make some biscuits and bacon for breakfast. lol

I had a substitute teacher in high school that ate baby food for lunch to stay thin. And boy was she thin! She said the only problem was that the baby food was usually more expensive to buy at the grocery store than the regular food she would normally buy for herself. Is that true for you?

No.....but I am also trying to cut back and it seems like I get more hungry when I do! LOL...mind playing tricks on me! LOL....

cynthiann, Out of concern, I really hope that you will recover from whatever you are undergoing. Also, are you enjoying those baby meals? You deserve a decent meal as I just do not think they have sufficient essential nutrients for your body. So for your own sake please have a better meal!

Hi Cynthiann, lol, the last time I ate baby food was about five years when weaning my son, some taste yummy though I agree! It is not something I would put into my basket these days though. I can relate to eating when stressed though. I tend to comfort eat too, not great for the waistline but feels good at the time eh! Hugles. Ellie :D

cynthiann I hear you but never went to baby food but I am a sweet lover and sadly I am also a diabetic, and when I get stressed or upset as I was today over some odd incidents on my access bus trip to the lab and back, I also eat. So as I missed breakfast as I had to fast for the darned cholesterol test in with all the other tests, when my tablemate wanted to know if I wanted her enchilada oh my I jumped at the offer. She cannot eat meat as she has gout. So I had two enchiladas plus the other food on my plate;.came up to my room, tried to mylot and was so sleepy, so decided to go down to the residents meeting . that woke me up some, specially as the lady next to me had her dog with her, a small pretty dog. usually dogs and I get along famously. so when I tried to pet his cute little head he snapped at me and growled. hello, dont you let that dog bite me, lady.so they served snacks,cakes , cookies all the stuff I am not supposed to eat but I did. smarting over being snapped and snarled at. Ihave never in my life before had a dog of any kind ever do that to me.So I ate just one piece patting myself on the back for the will power, then someone passed the plate, I took two pieces, and ended up eating five pieces of chocolate and white cake too.no baby food but lots of delicious sweet cake, and zoom went the blood sugar.

Nope, never tried that.. can't imagine that I'd want to either. Sorry that you've been so stressed out. Wish I knew how to help that, but I still struggle with it sometimes myself. Best advice I can give is 1. if you must eat all day, choose healthier things to eat, and 2. try exercise first, it might relieve some of the stress and make you not so interested in eating. And if you're craving sweets try those lower calorie sweets that I've mentioned before, like sugar free pudding or something similar.

I haven't eaten any baby food today, but I have in the past. My daughter is 27 years old and when she gets a taste for it she buys the baby food desserts and eats them. She has been eating them for years. I will probably buy some more in the future.

You have a great sense of humour cynthiann! I’m an emotional eater too but I am not drawn to baby food I must say. I am actually talking to a therapist about my need to overeat when I feel sad or stressed, amongst other problems, (LOL)! I drink tea or coffee, chew gum and deal with whatever I am feeling whenever I have the need to medicate myself with food. It’s really hard though isn’t it? You know when you’re doing that it’s not the answer but you go right ahead and do it anyway and eat another lunch or chocolate...

It has been a while since I've eaten baby food, but I have to say that I am not opposed to it when it is a pureed version of something that I would eat in the solid form. When I was in high school I had surgery on my jaw to help treat my TMJ and after the surgery I was on a liquid diet for a month. I learned then that baby food was one of the greatest things that there are when there is a very limited amount of things that you are allowed to eat.

Hi, after reading your story, i' m very interested in this, however, though 22 years old, i seldom eat any baby food, but i can image it must be nutritional and tastes good. if any chance, i 'd like to try. thanks
