Today my daughter went to a cook out with her older brother and his girlfriend at her parents house.I talked to her earlier on the phone and she said that she had 6 crabs,a half a rack of ribs and that she was cutting a brownie.When she got home my son told me that she could only eat a half a brownie.She had a terrible stomach ache so bad that she was crying.She got in her pj's and went to bed. Have you ever ate so much you were sick?

Unfortunately, I have. When I was about 10 we went out to Red Lobster and I got spaghetti (which I absolutely LOVE) and they brought out a HUGE tray of spaghetti. It tasted so wonderful that I wanted to eat it all (and nearly did). Needless to say, I was completely sick the rest of the evening and even ended up throwing up later on because I'd eaten too much. I've never made that mistake again! Now I stop eating as soon as my stomach is no longer hungry.

I have actually been in a similar situation that I have eaten so much that I thought my stomach was going to pop. I have learned from this situation and control what I eat so I don't get ill because of overeating and also for the benefit of my health and also to control my weight.

I know that I have eaten so much that I thought my stomach would burst. Fortunatley I try not to do that to myself too often. Usually I just eat as much as my stomach feels comfortable eating and that is about it. I try not to overdo it as I already have a weight problem and I dont need to add to it by overeating.

Oh yes I remember one time me and my officemates attended a town fiesta. Everyone was inviting us to their houses. We happened to eat at around four houses and we end up feeling uneasy. We felt that the food don't move down anymore, we have to drink 7up just to have an air out from within. We ended up laughing with our unforgetable experience.

I have but it's OK when I was kid, now is not anymore. It's makes my stomach feel not comfortable, and cannot sleep. I lost my appetite to eat, I though is I can eat a lot of food. Finally, I reduce my food portions 1/8 than before.

Oh my poor girl, Iv never really eaten so much that it made me that sick I sometimes eat a little to much but never enough to make me really feel sick, I try to make it a point not to eat to much, though I do have mild slip ups but nothing to bad, well anyway I hope she feels better soon.

I have never ate so much i got sick or felt sick unless it was something i had ate that didnt agree with me or that had something in it. But Other than that no. I have on the other hand ate so much that i thought i was going to POP lol. But then again it might have not been that she ate to much it could have just been something she ate and it didnt agree with her.

I always try to eat as much as I can whenever we are eating at an eat-all-you-can restaurants. I really think it's fun trying to eat more than what you paid for. Thankfully, my stomach is really good in taking it all.

Yes, when I was a kid or teenager. But not recently. I don't eat as much now. Partly because my metabolism isn't as fast, I'm not as hungry, I'm less active and I don't think eating lots is very healthy unless you are severly under the calories you need for your height, weight and activity level. One time, I was in a car on vacation with my grandparents. They would buy us lots of snacks like chips, donuts, candy, cookies. I ate lots of food. Partly because I was bored of being in the car so long. Maybe I was car sick too. Once, at school on multicultural day, there was all this food that people brought from different countries, i pigged out on my favorites. I ate so much. Hours later at supper I was to full that I couldn't force myself to eat supper. Or eat it before bed. So my parents made me eat it the next day instead of the main meal. Plus I didn't get dessert. And as a kid not getting dessert sucked. When I was young I used to eat so much food at buffets or at free food events where you could have as much as you wanted as long as you ate it in one sitting, sometimes against my brother and classmates sometimes just practice. I felt so sick after pancake day at school I couldn't remember the answers on my test. So I failed the test. I used to watch competitive eating shows and wanted to enter. Partly because I wanted to and partly because I used to eat more than others. But now I don't want to enter. All that food eating I believe is very bad for and hard on the body.

maybe not really sick however I felt like a balloon and had trouble sleeping because it was a very late dinner and obviously your stomach needs some time to digest the food. It is really discomforting. So now if I have late dinners I go for small portions or at least eat lighter foods. I hope your daughter is feeling better.
