Are you afraid of getting hungry?

I have a nephew who used to eat a lot and sometimes his weight makes him feel uncomfortable so he promised himself that he will do some exercise and will cut down on sweets. It came as a surprise when he suddenly blurted out, "I'm not afraid of getting hungry again". How about you? Do you sometimes feel that hunger is something to be scared of?

No, I have never felt that way. I am not scared of getting hungry. I must admit that I am quite a foodie and I really love eating. I have eaten a lot of junk food over the years and ended up having a gallbladder surgery for removal of gallstone. But even then I could not stop eating entirely. I do eat out at restaurants at least twice a month. My mom also prepares delicious lunch and dinner which I eat happily.It is true I had put on some weight and I am trying hard to exercise and shed the flab. But I cannot sacrifice on eating.

Yes for it is a sign that i will need to feed myself again. That means more Carbohydrates , Fats and Proteins. these things will add to my weight again.

i am afraid to go hungry because if it is frequent, it can cause ulcer of the intestine. One thing more is that one becomes weak when in the state of hunger... Be reminded that a hungry lion is even more dangerous than one with a full stomach. I too am easily enraged when with an empty stomach.
