I just had an odd thought or memory...I was thinking why the panicked "must eat!" bothers me so much. I remember having an irrational fear of going hungry or not having anything to eat, wondering where my next meal was going to come from. Not that I
ever have experienced true lack of food (like a famine victim). The "starving hungries" literally make my brain think I am going to die
if.I.don't.eat.something.NOW! LOL must be a primal holdover to make us forage for anything to sustain us back when we truly didn't know where the next meal was coming from.
Planning and menuing for the most part keep me from feeling like this as does eating every couple of hours!
