Long story short, I suffered from anorexia for a long time. I'm very strong in my recovery now (I am at a healthy weight), but lately, I have been eating more and still feeling hungry after I eat. For instance, I had Waffle House (for the first time) tonight for dinner. And just now, I finished off my rueben from Jason's Deli. And I still want some more food....What's wrong with me? Does this ever happen to you guys, too? :cry:

I eat pretty slowly, actually, but I ate the sandwich pretty quickly because I was hungry. And yeah, now my stomach feels weird. Still hungry, but maybe a little gassy? I have been drinking a LOT more water lately, too. Like, in the past month, I've been chugging down at least the equivalent of three water bottles a day. Not much, but it's a lot compared to what I used to be drinking, which was very little.

Oh, gosh, all the time. I have noticed my "munchies" are worse if I'm just sitting around not doing much more than reading or watching TV. I can eat myself absolutely sick at dinner (2-3 very large helpings) and within about 20 minutes, I'll have the munchies and I'll spend the rest of the evening making trips to the kitchen LOL

The best thing I've found to stop the munchies is to go and brush my teeth. I don't know why that works for me, but it does.

Yes! It usually happens around a certain time of the month for about 1 week for me. :-(

I have to go outside and do something or ill eat all day long. Literally.

hehe I just love this :wink:

I find that when I had those issues with cravings, or munchies, I chewed gum, or sucked on a piece of hard candy. It really wasn't that I was hungry, just wanted something to gnaw on.

A factor could also be that you have gained weight and have more body tissue to feed, thus are hungrier. It takes more food to feed a 125 pound body than a 100 pound body...
