I bet one of the reasons you eat so much is because of low self-esteem and because you are constantly being made fun of.\nIt's weird because I have put on quite a few pounds in the last few years and all of a sudden, people make fun of me...so instead of me saying "i'll show them" and losing weight, I end up coming home and pigging out and then feeling guilty and depressed later.\nI honestly can't tell you what to do to stop eating because if you aren't eating only when you are hungry then it's an emotional thing and only you can overcome that on your own (maybe with the help of a psychologist). But don't give up. I know it's hard and it will be hard to get motivated especially if you don't see results fast enough, but you are not alone.

I believe you should consult this matter with a physician, diabetes is somethig you don't take very light, yes you can go on a diet and there is no problem but the best bet would be a professional opinion..☺

See your doctor. Honestly. If you're noticing a compulsion to eat that's different than you normally feel, there could be an underlying cause for it. And hey, I'd feel better if you ask your doctor than some of the putzes that post answers here. :)

If you think there is a problem there probably is. It sounds like you are addicted to the sugar that is in the food you like to eat. It is however not healthy to be eating these foods exclusively. By doing so you are depriving your body of nurishment it needs, and soon you will not be feeling well. Everything in moderation, it's not a "fat" issue but a health one.

Truth is your an addict! You are addicted to sugar and the chocolate. Just like a person is addicted to drugs your addicted and you will need to get this out of your system just like with any drug.\nhttp://www.karlloren.com/Diabetes/p82.htm

You need to see a doctor and get a glucose tolerance test.  That is a high fasting blood sugar and needs investigating...;

As a diabetic you shouldn't eat anything with sugar in it. I realize some dr say it's ok on occassion, but the problem with that is, they assume that the diabetic knows what "occasional" means. When I was in my teens and youth, I didn't want to deal with the fact that I had diabetes, so I ate what ever I wanted. The immidiate result was really high glucose levels for very extended amounts of time. Your body will aclimate to high sugar levels, but you will definately suffer long term consequences such as nueropathy and high blood pressure, which over time will lead to loss of feeling in the feet and hands, osteoperosis, reproductive organ malfunction or failure, blindness, strokes and/or heart attacks. \nI used to be out of controll with my blood sugar levels. The day they told me I was blind and that it would permanent if I didn't get it under control, I fixed it. Surgeries reversed the blindness, but the long term effects of being out of controll had already begun to affect me. I eventually ended up on dialisys and have begun to lose some of the feeling in my right foot. I was on dialisys for two years before getting a kidney/pancreas transplant. Any one of those complications will bring your normal life to a screaching halt.\n\nI know, It's really hard to eat right all the time. After a month or two of eating right and exercising, it will become second nature to you. I don't eat very much starch foods or carbs. Back when I went blind, that was one of the things I cut out of my diet and that was 18  years ago. I had my transplant 6 years ago, but I was so in the habit of not eating starchy and high carb foods, that even now, I feel like I have a brick in my gut and I weigh 500 pounds if I eat the average amounts of these foods. No, I'm not pencil skinny, nor would you or anyone else ever guess there was anything wrong with me in the first place. once you start eating right and working with your diabete's instead of against it, the easier it will be to live life like it should be lived.\n\nWhether you have type 1 or type 2 diabetes, you listed some of the key foods you should stay away from. As hard as it may be, stay away from candy, foods that are high in sugar, soda pops, fast foods, fatty foods and carbs. People will tell you don't cut all carbs out of your diet, Thats what gives you energy for your muscles. And thats true, but if you eat a well balanced diet, you'll get plenty of carbs from the fruits and vegatables you eat. Yes, there is carbs in those foods.

If you are still eating probably, you could be losing weight due to a high metabolism. The best thing to do, if you are concerned, is to speak to your doctor

I have the same problem . I recently found out that my sugar is a lot of my problem. I am controling my sugar with diet. Seek advice from your doctor about this "problem" you are having!

Are you taking any drugs from the doctor? \n\nMaybe you are so busy you are stressed out? No time to eat. Been there done that and it is not healthy. Headache from not eating, tired from no food.\n\nAs I am told when I was on this nasty medication, make yourself eat something healthy, not fast food, something like fish or a chief salad (made yourself) or something like this...Why I say to make it yourself is this way you no what is put onto your food. Those fast food places are like eating candy, just junk....

Keep all forbidden foods out of the house!  Try eating small meals 4-6 times a day instead of bigger meals 3 times a day.  This keeps you from getting hungry and keeps your metabolism working well.  It's also good for keeping your blood sugar more regular.  Try being as active as physically possible for you, but don't over do it.  This will keep your mind off of eating, as well as helping you shed those pounds.

eating only one meal a day is already an eating disorder. our body needs food every 4 hours. lots of fluids too. you can get ulcer if this doesn't stop. i understand feeling guilty whenever you eat. but we have no choice, we just need to be choosy on the food we eat so we won't end up sick.

sounds like your mitochondrial system in your cells are a little over-loaded with blood sugar, try restricting carbohydrates and refined sugar, especially after sundown as this will keep you up at night.. Carbs are pasta, rice, bread and other starchy stuff, try more vedgetables and alkaline fruits, fresh food is also better than packaged.\n\neat in moderation and snack more if you are hungry a lot but reduce the meal size. Try to inclease the vitamin value of your food and read the labels of the food you do eat to better understand the ingredients that may be keeping you up. Cafein in soda tea or coffee could be keeping you up and tired, try reducing these drinks to 1-2 a day if you can.\non sleeping, the brain averages its sleep cycles in 90 minute periods for most of us although it is a little different for every one. try sleeping 7.5, 6 or 9 hours at a time the period needs to be divisable by 90 minutes.\n  Lastly try running, jogging or walking an hour or two every other day, amazing what exersize can do to regulate sleep and make you tired. I take a hot bath or shower after exersizing and I sleep like a baby.\n  Oh and stay away from sleep aides with the exception of a triptifan mouth spray, it is natural and has a great taste and you will not feel groggy in the A.m.\ngood luck!\n\noh a guy came to me once and he repeated over and over " I am a teepee I am a wigwam, I am a teepee I am a wigwam" I said "hey man you are just too tents!" (joking) tension and stress will keep you awake too, reduce stresses at home work and school when you can, yoga, thaichi (sp.?) and pilaties can help with stress too. have fun joke aroud more and ditch anyone in your life who is depressing, find people who are fun and uplifting.

Limit your carb intake. The body turns all carbs into sugar. With simple carbs; sugar, honey, syrup, etc. the body converts these quickly causing your blood sugar to spike so avoid these. Complex carbs like rice, oatmeal, beans, etc. take longer to convert so your blood sugar doesn't spike, but it will still go up. You also have to be careful not to eat too much protein. Protein won't effect your blood sugar, but will effect your kidneys which are already working overtime trying to get rid of the excess sugar. Make an appointment and talk with a dietitian. In the meantime practice portion control. That's where most of us get in trouble. 1/2 Cup is a serving of starch like corn, beans, pasta, potatoes. 1 Cup is a serving of raw veggies and 1/2 Cup cooked veggies = a serving. 1 oz. of meat = 1 serving of meat. Watch your diet and talk with a dietitian and you should be able to control your diabetes without having to go on meds. OH and always carry some hard candy with you in case your blood sugar gets too low. Good luck with this.

well, you do have some sort of eating issue. if just about all you think about is food & your weight then you do have a problem. i would then suggest reaching out for help before it goes much further. or you can make a change yourself by recognizing the problem and upping your intake of super healthy things like vegetables and fruit. learning more about nutrition and the good fruits and vegetables do for your body could really help you.\n\nif you think its a problem then it is a problem in one way or another.\n\nby the way, i am sure you have heard, when you don't eat enough like how you are doing, your body starts to store whatever you do eat as fat because it saves it as backup energy to burn later. it also slows down your metabolism and is worse than just eating more & healthier. i would highly suggest educating yourself about propper nutrition & learning how to give your body what it needs. if you eat super healthy foods & exercise regularly, your body will be so much happer! you can perhaps help your mom with cooking & learn how to make healthier choices for your entire family.

I would see a doctor first thing.  If you are sexually active be honest with your doctor.  See what your doctor recommends for a diet.  They have diet plans.  Ask your doctor to recommend an exercise ( I would think any cardiovascular, example: bicycling, swimming) If you diet do not stop eating.  Eat a healthy well balanced meal and every meal.  I would drink plenty of water to flush your body and maintain your metabolism.  Your doctor may recommend smaller portions.  Cut out any junk foods.  Eat a a good breakfast, good lunch, and light dinner.  When you sleep your body shuts down so you aren't digesting at a normal rate.  If you need snacks I would recommend fruits or vegetables.

What foods are you craving specifically?  If you need chocolate, you are better off eating high cocoa versions like 70% cooking chocolate.  If it is burgers, try eating chicken burgers instead of ordinary ones.\n\nI over ate last week because it was just so damned cold.  I also over eat if I am stressed out.  Think about how you are feeling at the moment and if you are stressing about something, do something to sort it out.  Exercise is really good for stress but if you are feeling stressed the last thing you want to do is exercise.  Catch 22!\n\nGood luck!
