Reply #141: Stop eating so damn much. The heavy people I'm related to all suffer from [View All]

"Hand-To-Mouth" disease. They eat, all day long, whether they're hungry or not. In fact, they really believe they ARE hungry, when they've probably never had a truly empty stomach in years--don't even know what it feels like. All they know is, if it's 8 am, they're hungry. If it's snack time, they're hungry. If it's noon, they're hungry. If the McDonald's Drive Thru is calling, they're hungry. I mean, it's been, like--what? Three or four hours since they last ate? They're FAMISHED! Light-headed! Then they end up diabetic and have bad joints and can't move around and eat some more to make themselves feel better--vicious cycle. I suffer from Hand-To-Mouth sometimes, too, so I know of which I speak. Only cure is to PUT DOWN THE SECOND PORK CHOP. DON'T EAT THE COOKIE. DON'T SUPERSIZE. Learn what TRUE hunger feels like, don't eat out of habit, or because the clock says it's lunch, or because it's simply there. Pick the right foods. And move your ass.
