You have a rare disease called "hunger".

J o o k · 02-21-2006, 01:31 AM

Thats the thing, I eat as a hobby, I don't even have to be hungry. I am very muscular but, I know one day it will catch up with me.

damn yo i wish i could be like that... my problem is not eating. lol i wish i was always hungry, fuck, how do u do it

Most of the time people confuse the feeling of "Hunger" with your body needing liquids. So instead of eating try drinking some stuff. Also, eating food with alot of fiber in it gives you the sense of being full and will help your hunger craving.

INesia · 03-05-2006, 10:21 PM

Constant hunger can mean fuel is not getting into your cells; when this is related to diabetes, it is generally accompanied by rapid weight loss, thirst, and frequent urination. A hyperactive thyroid can also cause this type of increased metabolism. Hormonal imbalance shifts may be another cause.....

Or....

maybe you're eating for emotional needs...and you use food to pacify your emotions...

Cigma · 03-06-2006, 03:13 AM

I fasted for 10 days during lent a few years ago.

Ever since then I could curb my hunger urges. Which should not be mistaken for hunger pains...

Drink more fluids like phlem said.

And eating numerous times a day isn't necesarrily bad, it's when you gorge that it becomes a problem.

From what I've read, primative man, would eat often during the day, upwards of 8 meals. But they didn't eat to get full, just so they wouldn't be hungry.

It's more efficient to eat that way, and you're less likely to accumulate excess which when not utilized turns into fat. They led a more nomadic lifestyle than the sedimentary one we live today, which aggravates the problem. We take in large quantities of calories, and then we sit down to watch T.V., or sit down at work, or sit down at school... etc

The '3 big meals a day' was a recent development, but at the same time it's outdated lol.

RedIye · 03-06-2006, 08:43 AM

If you have a problem eating too much you could always try some sort of ECA stack, although you dont sound too experienced, so I wouldnt really recommend it. Try to plan your meals throughout the day... try to eat 5 or 6 small meals, low carbs, high protein.

Pent uP · 03-19-2006, 08:58 AM

Any advice?

If you're sure your problem is actually physical (not that you're eating out of boredom or something) then go see a doctor. You may be underexpressing the leptin recepr - leptin is a protein release from fat cells when you eat, and the leptin binds to a leptin receptor in your brain to let you know that you're full. You could also not be releasing enough leptin - they can treat this with injections.

You could also try eating a small (>200Cal) meal or snack every 3 hours during the day to keep your energy up, and make sure you drink lots of water.
