Food Addiction…………?
Question by : Food addiction…………?
When someone has a drug/alcohol problem, absence is the solution to recovery. What happens when someone has an addiction to food? One can not simply remove food from their life without starvation. I guess the answer is proper management and moderation.
I am successfully doing this. I am a female in my early twenties, 5’2 and 118 pounds. I’m active and overall physically fit. But I have this dark secret of the obsession of food. I am constantly thinking about what I’m going to eat, when I’m going to eat, what I’m putting in my mouth is doing to my body (I eat very healthy) and I’m sooo tired of revolving my thoughts around something we just need to keep us alive.
Right now I want to go eat a bucket of cookie dough, a jar of peanut butter, ice cream..etc. I had a little bit, because I’ve learned depriving myself makes me end up binging. But then, once I have a little, it’s the “one is too many and a thousand is never enough..” deal.
ANY advice would be appreciated.
PS: I’m a graduate student, work part time, and have at least 3 hobbies that keep me busy
