Can Food Become Addicting

[FuNkY CaPrIcOrN]

We were just chating in SoulSeek after I had spaghetti for breakfast this Morning.

And I want to know who else is haveing this problem lately?I can not stop eating.I mean it is becomeing as addictive to me as Beer and Cigarettes.

They say obesity will be the #1 cause of death next Year.Am I going to die this way?And who is going with me?

And I know the Goverment is not makeing the food addictive.All of this is costing them Money.

Help a soon to be 30 Year old man who is 30 lbs overweight and can not put down the last piece of Extra Crispy Chicken from KFC.

1. Do you eat when you're not hungry?

2. Do you go on eating binges for no apparent reason?

3. Do you have feelings of guilt and remorse after overeating?

4. Do you give too much time and thought to food?

5. Do you look forward with pleasure and anticipation to the time when you can eat alone?

6. Do you plan these secret binges ahead of time?

7. Do you eat sensibly before others and make up for it alone?

8. Is your weight affecting the way you live your life?

9. Have you tried to diet for a week (or longer), only to fall short of your goal?

10. Do you resent others telling you to "use a little willpower" to stop overeating?

11. Despite evidence to the contrary, have you continued to assert that you can diet "on your own" whenever you wish?

12. Do you crave to eat at a definite time, day or night, other than mealtime?

13. Do you eat to escape from worries or trouble?

14. Have you ever been treated for obesity or a food-related condition?

15. Does your eating behavior make you or others unhappy?


I answered yes to at least 5 of these.I feel I am back in AA.
