It is ridiculous - how to stop myself!!! such a battle. I don't remember if I was this way in college - but I doubt I wasn't very far away from it.

I feel like that all the time! Its horrible to constantly be thinking about food and what your going to be able to eat next. I feel like half my day is either thinking about when/what I can eat next or thinking about how I shouldn't have eaten certain things and my weight. Its horrible to always be thinking this way.

I know exactly what you all mean. When Im not trying to lose weight, I obsess about food, and when I am trying to lose weight, I obsess about food... Its a no win situation because of this psychological problem my body has of never feeling full...
What has been working for me is just telling myself that everything is ok in moderation as long as I stay away from trigger foods, and if I fall off the wagon for one meal, I get right back on at the next...

I agree. The one time I lost a lot of wt. it was just "right". Everything fell into place. You know whats weird though? People would refer to me as "little", "small", LOL!! It was so strange! I still saw myself as a "brick house", "thick". Now that I'm up again in wt. (took 15 yrs to get here!) I still see pictures and can't believe how BIG I am! I just have this picture of me, about a size 12, in my head and I guess thats where I always think I am! I pull my pants out of the dryer and think "OMG! Those can't be MINE! I'm not THAT big!" LOL
Anyone else feel like this? (should have made it a new thread...)

ha, I just have to say...I love you all :D I can't get over this feeling of just wanting to EAT all the time. It's not that I'm always hungry, necessarily, just that I want to KEEP eating (as mentioned, even if my stomach is hurting). It's apparent that I (we), unlike many people, cannot rely on my body to tell me when (and when not) to eat or continue eating, so now it requires a lot more thought and effort than for most people. And it sucks, but at least we're not alone :^:
