Are you a sneaky eater?

I haven't eaten anything all day!
Or, at least, I can't remember eating anything.
But I don't feel hungry. So I know that I've been
sneaking food.
Today when I woke up, I had a snack cake.
No, not the best way to wake up.
But the sugar did sustain me.
And I didn't feel hungry all day.
But I think that I have been eating bits
and pieces of things all day.
Just awhile ago, I can remember taking a bite of
chicken.
And for lunch when my daughter had peanut butter
sandwiches, I took a bite of peanut butter.
But for the life of me, I can't remember eating
one full meal the entire day. I know that I've had food
but I don't remember taking more than a bite or two of
anything!
Has that ever happened to you?
Have you ever snacked your way through the day?

You are blessed to be alive.
My first baby only survived less than one
month in my womb and was snatched away.
He or she never saw the light of day.
Every day you are blessed to breathe.
And so am I!
With breath you have life and the ability
to leave your current situation in hopes of finding
something better.
Like my forefathers who immigrated to this land
(and those who were already here for thousands of years
before that), you have the option to make your life
better if it's not what you desire!
Grab your own future and make it do what you want.

Yep! That sounds like my day.
I have small recollections of eating some thing, but
not a really big meal.
Not healthy for me, I'm sure.
But then again, I've heard that some women in various
countries like France do lots of smaller meals (snack size meals)
and are always slimmer.
So maybe eating small bits here and there is not such a bad thing.
I just have to make sure that it's all healthy!
I don't mind smaller portions of healthy foods as they don't
slow me down like one giant supper meal!

I have had days when I did not eat anything and did not realize it until I started with dinner and then suddenly realized I had not eaten all day. I always start the day with a cup of coffee, But my stomach just does not like me to put anything in it other then that for about two hours. If I get busy with something then I just do not think about eating.

i am very choosy when i think about food. i don't like to eat anytime but if there is my favorite food in my refrigerator i break my all rule. i like cookies, cake, something salty.
today i walk up early in the morning and felt hunger. i told my sister please could you prepare some food for me. and she serve me noodles after sometime.. usually i don't like noodles so much, but Today i eat it because i felt hungry at that time.

I don't know if she picked up her picky eating
habits from me, or if I picked them up from her.
I was never a really big eater before, but seems
that some days I don't have one full meal.
However, I did have a really good meal on Thursday.
Real family style, homemade pork chops, bread and baked
potato.
I put a lot of effort into making the meal.
Then turned around and made turkey dinner.
I put that into the fridge and my spouse had that for lunch
and for his work dinner.
We don't often get to sit down and eat together.
But it's nice when it happens!

That is how I live most days to be honest, it is much better than sitting down to a boring meal! Just have a bite of everyone elses! The only trouble though is when I do this then I do not want a meal so it means that I am not eating anything substantial, but I do not mind!

Many a times. I have knows days when I survived on nothing but biscuits and soft drinks. These are the days when mum is usually out of town and dad is also very busy. I love doing this once in a while. makes me feel better and I test myself with time and see for how long I can stay without proper food and stay active. Although this time is short, its more than anything compared to what my friends have and I'm proud of it.
I usually have some snacks like biscuits and choclates brought from outside. and I just sit and eat them all day long.

That is basically how I used to eat all the time. The only full meal I'd eat was dinner. I'm becoming more concious of it now, and actually I don't eat anything at all now, not even a bite, until dinner. Not much better, but at least I've cut down on the junk food.

I used to be a sneaky eater when I would so to parties . well , maybe that is not the best way to put it . I was always worried someone was watching me eat , and thinking she dont need that . Now I just dont care what people think , and I enjoy myself with food . I mean sometimes when I am out I will feel like a few cookies , but I will just eat one , because I keep thinking . I never was like that near my soon to be hubby I always ate what i wanted near him lol . Anyway have a good rest of the weekend

I am a sneaky eater too. I try not to eat one full meal in a day. Whenever I am hungry, I just sneak something to suppress my hunger. I find out after one full meal, I will always feel so bloating and it's too full for me. So most of the time, I prefer sneaking food for the whole day. I enjoy eating a little bit of everything,lol.

Well for some reason I can't eat much in one sitting but I can eat many times throughout the day, including late in the evening. I used to eat really unhealthy food, although I have never come close to being overweight. However, snacking is a really bad habit which I have made a conscious effort to stop recently. I am now eating 3 solid meals a day and I feel much better with myself.
