Always hungry!

This is quite a strange problem...but I am always hungry!! I eat a good balanced diet, don't exercise an amazing amount but I do quite a lot of walking around (like to town or to work etc) and cycle to uni. Sometimes I'll eat 4 meals a day, and quite often an hour after breakfast I'm hungry again if I've cycled to uni, even if I've ate a massive bowl of porridge. The meals I eat are usually big portions, but an hour or 2 after I can easily eat again. After working 4-5 hours in the bar I get REALLY hungry and have to eat something. If I don't eat when I'm hungry I can't function, my stomach swells up with gas and I start to feel dizzy and sick.
I am a fairly slim size 8 and I keep a close eye on what I eat because I eat so much. I'm just wondering if there could be any kind of medical problem that might make me need to eat so much?! Or am I just greedy . I'm sick of everyone thinking I'm a piggy

I have always tried to follow the philosophy of eating when you're hungry. If you are hungry, you probably need the food. I also heard once that people often mistake thirst for hungry, so if you are putting on lots of weight and feel you are eating too much, try having a glass of water or juice or something instead if it's not a 'mealtime'.
If it's reallllly bad then you could possibly have worms?! As far as I know, they basically eat up the food you've eaten, kind of, thus making you hungry all the time. You'd have other side effects though.
actually im 24 ! lol
