What makes you feel hungry?

Is it when you see someone eating? Especially if that person you see eating seems to have a very good appetite. You imagine your favorite foods? Especially those that you really crave for. You smell food that makes you salivate? You're talking about food with other people? You remember not having eaten a good tasting food for months? Or maybe, you just wait until your stomach grumbles?

When I'm busy, I do not feel hungry at all. I can work without food for more than 10 hours (really bad for health). When I am not very busy, I'll only eat when I start feeling hunger pangs. I do not take my meals at fixed timing. I only eat when I am hungry or when there's a craving for a particular food.

I usually get like that whenever I start watching a cooking show late at night. The cooking channel is the worst channel to watch when you are already hungry. It just makes you want food even more. So I usually just wait until my stomach grumbles, then off to the kitchen I go.

The smell of food, make sme hungry very easily, even though i just eaten till very full.. lol =D TO me, as long as the food smells nice, i think that most likely the food will be nice too ^_^ hehe If not, when i'm being deprived too long for a certain food, once i happen to hear and see that particular food, i will get hungry straight away too, and i will feel like eating that thing right away.. haha

It makes me hungry when I see commercials for restuarants. They always make there food look so good. It also makes me hungry when I get into a conversation about food with someone. Especially if we are talking about grilling something. I love food cooked on a grill.

There's a lot of things that make me hungry. My senses tell me so. If I could see someone eating something and he or she is enjoying it a lot, I am also enticed to taste it or buy one. And If I feel hungry if I can smell great aroma from food.

I thought I never experienced feeling hungry just by seeing people eating, imagining my favorite foods. But some times, with just a smell of a very good smelling food and a lot of talking with other people about our favorite foods make me feel hungry. I feel hungry most of the time during the office hours, but I rather finish my work, spend the time with the computer than get out of the office and eat. (neildc @ red/89/1764)

I used to have a very good appetite and always ate too much till my stomach swelled,and felt hungry when I smelt the food that made me salivate in the past time. It is because of this I get my liver functionally damaged so that I have to have some medicines to protect liver. Now nothing could tempt my appetite which are controlled intentionally for health.

Its almost everytime my mouth starts watering even if I see a cooking show on TV. I like good cooked food and if you will count its different tastes for me, my mouth will start watering and I will be dieing to eat that food. I guess I have a good appetite but I don't eat that much. I am after quality of food not quantity.

What makes me hungry can be a combination of things. I can be thinking about something that I would like to eat like my favorite food which is Chinese food. I am always in the mood for Chinese food and I very rarely have it because I can't afford it right now. I can be talking about a certain food and then start craving it. I can just be hungry and want a certain food like pizza. I love pizza and can often crave it. I just usually can think of a certain food and then I decide that I want it suddenly. It can just be something as simple as french toast for dinner and I will decide to have it! It's when the cravings are for things that are totally for things that there are no way that I can possibly get at the moment that I get upset like wanting southern fried chicken at 1:00 in the morning!

Sometimes it is just the craving that I find extremely hard to resist. The picture of your favorite food painting itself in your mind is simply irresistible. Of course, if you are really hungry, you gotta eat :D

The aroma of food being cooked by my Mom and sis makes me feel hungry......... especially when they are cooking any of my favourite dishes......yumm yumm yummy. Sometimes the sight of good food (that I have been craving for since a long time) in front of me also makes me hungry.... this usually happens when I go for shopping :-)

I'll just wait till my stomach tells me to eat. The rule is don't eat when you are not hungry. Eat when you feel hungry, Now if you feel always hungry you may be a glutton or something. You must discipline yourself in proper eating habits so as to avoid obesity.
