I am not, i don't really eat much of them, though my friends do eat frequently and sometimes when i am out with them in the evenings and have some of those stuff my stomach disrupts and it shows signs next morning, so do you eat a lot of junk food so that it doesn't bother your stomach anymore, i mean getting used to eating junk food ? are you ? do you like junk food ?

I used to be a junk food lover, or perhaps, junk food addict! I eat a lot of junk food, everyday. And wherever I go, I must bring along with me at least a packet of chips. But I've stopped from taking junk foods when I find out my weight increase rapidly. Its been 5 years now, I've never ever touch any junk food, and I'm so thankful that my body is much more healthy, and I lose weight from it.

Yup! At first its really hard to control myself. But now, I feel nothing, and I didn't crave for whenever I saw Cadbury, or Sneakers Bar, or Potato Chips. I'm totally in control. =) Have a good day to you too, voldrox. =)

I rarely eat in fast-foods and I'm not a potato chips fan so I guess I'm not accustomed to junk food:P But I know McDonald's fries are great so I buy them sometimes.And I've never had a stomache after eating it. The most important thing is to know your limits:P When I look at people eating giand pack of snacks I can't imagine how can they eat so much._.' But I guess it's the matter of "exercise", right?

I was a junk food junkie when I was in college, up until may be 2 years ago. I have always had a fast metabolism and have been on the thinner side. So I never really bothered when it came to eating junk food. But then one time I got a bad stomach infection and was on medication for about 2 months. I then stopped treating my system this badly.

Well, I am not sure if the junk food caused the infection. But I was not allowed to eat junk food for obvious reasons. I then decided to be a little careful and reduced my junk food intake. And anytime you want someone to scare you, you know where to find me. I don't even charge a fees

I guess I am quite fussy when it comes to my food. I don't like filling my body with rubbish because it doesn't make me feel good at all. I will occasionally have a packet of crisps or a biscuit but if I eat it too reguarly it doesn't make me feel good. I like to see ingredients on things before I eat them as a lot of junk is put in food without you knowing! I don't tend to eat out at places much as I know most of it is made as cheap as they can. If I buy food to go it is nearly always fruit. I will very occasionally have a McDonalds, maybe once a twice a year. But I am vegetarian so there are alot of fast food places I wouldn't eat at anyway like KFC ! I definitely prefer home made food to the shop ready made things.

that's great pinklemonade, i too like home made food... i know even i don't feel like having a lot of stuff, some of my friends are fond of it and sometimes like my company so i just go with them at times, and when i go there i naturally don't deny eating up something.... hehe.... just for some support otherwise it would be somewhat awkward that i have gone out with them and they keep eating something and i keep watching them........ well you are doing the right thing, fruits and fruit juices are very healthy, i should have more of them... glad to see you:)..... have a nice nice day pinklemonade!:)

Hello my friend I am so far behind in my notifications its not even funny It all depends I try to not to eat junk food all the time cause it will take a toll on your digestive system but sometimes I may rave something in this case I must have it, but something is trying to tell you something my friend so just say no o.k not good for us anyway and obviously you are not use to it so why bother, tell your friends you had something to eat and you don't want to eat anything else.

hey kitty no worries about replying to me late.... yeah you are right i must tell them something, in fact it would be better if i actually ate something better and tell them the truth...lol... at the same time i shouldn't let them go outside so frequently, they should also know that having a lot of those stuffs isn't advisable... thanks for replying:).... have a nice day kitty!

Hello my friend How are you feeling? As usual your way is much better bad me lol I should have emphasized you eating something and this way you are honest with your friends, I think you talking to them and trying to get them to eat as little junk food as possible is a great idea as well, but you my friend need to stop now not sure what it is you are eating but whatever it is does not agree with your system so you know what you have to do for yourself, making sure this does not happen to your friends only tell us how great a friend you are You are one of the best my friend.

i eat junk food but i try not to eat a lot of it.. i am about to get a nutty buddy lol but i'm hungry. junk food is so good but so bad for us. of course its got to be because its so good. lol sometimes i do over eat the junky stuff but i always find my way back to eating healthy. i think its okay to pig out on it every once in a while as long as its not all the time. other wise you will end up fat or unhealthy.

I don't really eat all that much junk food other then like chips or something like that. When I eat I generally do it at home and I usually make meals with my girlfriend when I eat. I don't really eat fast food either so I think that I do pretty well against the junk food.

hey shimanaja, you are absolutely right, especially children should not be made to eat such stuff at a young age, definitely they will begin to like it and want more of it, i am glad i didn't have much of them when i was a kid... thanks for the response and have a nice day shimanaja!

i love to eat junk food specially during movie time. i always have some at home. i used to eat them while browsing the net, reading or watching television. though its not healthy but it can help you ease your boredom, just by killing your time and yet you have nothing to do so why not sit down have some junk foods, watch or browse internet to make up your day.

Well, when I was young I really was accustomed to eating this junk stuff. When I grow up I really did notice that this junk foods contained no necessary nutrients that our body need. It's like we are eating junk. So. Right now. I control eating junk foods for once a week or none in a week.

junk food is not good for health but then the taste buds love the junk food. i am not a regular eater of junk food but i love to have junk food like pizza and burger and pasta. once in a while i grab any of them. if you regularly exercise and have a proper rooutine then junk food is not harmful when taken once in a week or so. maintain aproper routine of exercise and balanced diet and the feed on junk once in week...

I don't think I have problem eating junk food. In fact, I think I am a bit slow responding to any food in my stomach. Once, my friends and I ate noodles at a stall and they end up with stomach ache. I, on the other hand, took three days to have a little stomach ache. So I don't know whether I have problem or not. So far I haven't have stomach ache from eating in KFC or McD.

Junk food is not my cup of tea. I may eat fried food, like Kentucky Fried Chicken, but I peel off the chicken that is unhealthy. I like fruits and vegetables. I dislike food that is too sweet or salty. This had been my healthy habits since young. During those younger days I didn't know anything about healthy living. I just hate sweet or salty or oily food.

well it is a good thing you are not eating much of junk food, even i don't eat much myself, only sometimes and mostly with friends... have a nice day workoutfreak

Ooh yeah...I totally love it. It tastes delicious, is cheap, readily available almost anywhere and is a quickie. I don't see any reason of not loving it apart from the health point of view of course. The number of calories you consume with each junk meal is almost 3 times the normal meal. It takes a lot of time to digest and obviously causes digestive distress on occasions. But then if we eat junk food in certain limits, we can still enjoy eating and not jeopardising your health at the same time. Having said that, its quite a meal in cold countries like Norway where a human mst consume 3 times calorie meals than any other country person. I guess its a boon in those regions.
