drifter, maybe you can find something else to occupy you instead of eating? or try and develop a fruit addiction <IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/smile.gif">
sorry im not much help.
It only takes one tree to make a thousand matches, only takes one match to burn a thousand trees
I have a serious eating prob, i eat choc all day and have diarea attacks in the morning and shit about 3 times a day. only had 3 choco bars today and none yesterday so im hoping so sort my bowels.
{{{{{{Drifter}}}}}} could your eating be linked more to comfort eating as opposed to boredom eating if so, is this a problem you could identify and rectify yourself (obviously we'll be here to help) if not maybe this is something you can work with your counsellor.
Like GFM said maybe subsitute the food you are eating with fruit (though I am I right in thinking u r vegtarian? if so u prolly are eating fruit) try sugar free gum like orbit or extra. Also try to keep your hands busy when you feel like a peckish stint, with say a juggling ball or stress ball. I to be honest don't know what to suggest I know these are techniques I used successfully for a year when I gave up smoking <IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/smile.gif"> good luck drifter, we're here if there's any more we can do

The river is wide and oh so deep. I've been walking around in tears, No answers arethere to get. Cause between this world and eternity there is a face I hope to see
it could be something to do with comfort eating <IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/frown.gif"> i miss my friend and want to be with him <IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/frown.gif"> <IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/frown.gif"> <IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/frown.gif"> and i am not seeing my councellor anymore. I missed two appointments coz i got the dates wrong (duh im so thick <IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/rolleyes.gif"> ) and she deleted me from her files.
yes i am a veggie and i do eat tons of fruit, but i tend to eat tons of shit too! lol <IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/biggrin.gif"> [/b] [/quote]
did ne1 know that this was sposed to make u more hungry because u produce more saliva and ur stomach is expecting to get food and it isn't. Did any1 else hear that or is that just another cock n bull story?
i have always thought those stress balls were way cool! mayb its time to get 1! <IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/biggrin.gif">
i drink like sooooo much water is all i drink (except wen i wanna get pissed lol) my skin it still shit tho, but oh well u can't have everything!!! i can see what u mean about it filling u up, but its not really about being hungry or not. I wish it was.
Thanks for all the advice guys!

anwyay going ever-so-slightly off topic..
It only takes one tree to make a thousand matches, only takes one match to burn a thousand trees
If you don't mind me asking, what is ur condition?
thats a good idea! <IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/smile.gif">
And i'm sorry for being so nosy (don't feel you have to answer if you don't want to) but why did u put on weight when you were with your bf and lose it wen u broke up with him?
Sorry if i'm being too nosy by asking you!

Boredom eating is bad, I used 2 do it all the time (along with comfort eating) and I got really overweight.
It's crap being overweight cos ppl take the piss outta u and then u eat more cos you're depressed.
I know it aint healthy but i think it balances it out.
Also, when ur not hungry, but still wana eat, try makin urself a salad or sumat cuz lettuce and cucumber is mostly water, so it cant be fattening??!
i lmost couldn't fit into my trousers today <IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/frown.gif">
There's a girl in my mirror
I wonder who she is
Sometimes I think I know her
Sometimes I really wish I did
