You must have a high metabolism.  While it is a good thing for your health...the best thing to do, unfortunately, is to keep eating about five small meals a day.  That's the way we're supposed to eat.  \n\nMaybe you're growing too, it makes a difference.

You're going to hate me, but eat less and exercise more.\n\nI mean, find something you like to do and promise yourself you will do it at least x times a week. (I promise myself I'll run at least 3 times a week, take at least two long walks and do yoga 4 times). \n\nAs for food, I am a huge snacker, so my big thing is to write things down when I eat them. It keeps me remembering that I'm eating (yes, I know that sounds lame, but otherwise, I tend to stand in the kitchen and stuff things in my mouth while I'm reading the mail or whatever.) I count calories, but I think I'd do that in my sleep at this point.\n\nMy last suggestions is to find something you adore and make sure you make room in your "diet" for it. I adore really great dark chocolate. I end each evening with a small piece of wonderful chocolate (about 75 calories). It makes me feel good to know that it is waiting for me. It also makes it easier to say "no" to the rest of the temptations in the day.\n\nOK - one more "final" suggestion. I try to remind myself that this is not a case of deprivation, but rather that I'm taking care of myself. Pampering my body with good food and good exercise. I try to work in things like doing my nails and taking bubble baths, but that seems to fall off the page often.\n\nBefore I risk sounding like I have this all figured out, let me admit that I would love to drop 5 - 10 pounds, but... I'm energetic, my husband thinks I look great (yes, he's a guy, but still...) and my doctor tells me that I'm at an ok weight (although she'd love it if I were a bit lighter, too.)\n\nHope this helps.

If you are already in any exercise program then to prevent hunger eat small portion of healthy food 5-6 times a day.\n\nDon't let you body go without a palm/fist size portion of food for more than 2-4hours.\n\nDrink lotsa plain water.\n\nFor more accurate information try the book Slow Burn by Stu Mittleman.\n\nMaybe you can find in in library.

You're hungry four hours later? That's no surprise! That's a long time to go without food when you are growing. And you are still growing. You need more calories.\n\nI used to get embarrassed when my stomach would growl in class when I was in high school, too. Everyday in algebra. I know it's embarrassing now, but, you know what? In a few years no one will remember. Besides, everyone knows that people get hungry. And you are not the first person whose stomach has grumbled. :-)\n\nHaving 5 small meals a day can curb your hunger better than having the traditional 3 meals a day. Do you have some time in your schedule for a midday snack? Is there any chance of having a quick snack between classes? \n\nSomething fibrous and filling might help: an apple, granola bar. Or something that will give your stomach something to work on for a while: cheese, meat.\n\nI'm glad to hear that you are eating breakfast. You might also try something more filling for breakfast: oatmeal, peanut butter on your toast...\n\nDon't bother with appetite suppressants. That's crazy. Also, you have a condition. I don't think you want to mess with medications that might affect your metabolism.\n\nYour dad also probably doesn't get hungry because he is older and doesn't need as many calories as you do. Talk with your parent(s). Maybe you'll get some ideas from them.\n\nGood luck. I hope that you won't let this affect your life too much. It will pass. You won't be in high school forever. Keep the big picture.

The holidays can be stressful... and unfortunately, many people reach for food as comfort. If you find yourself regularly eating in response to stress, anxiety, sadness, boredom, anger, loneliness, relationship problems, or poor self-esteem, try to break the habit with some of my strategies below.\n\nLearn to recognize your hunger. Before you automatically pop something into your mouth, rate your hunger on a scale of 1 to 5 -- 1 being ravenous and 5 being full. Make every effort to avoid eating when your hunger is a 4 or a 5.\n \nFind alternatives to eating. Make a personal list of activities you can do instead of eating. Perhaps go for a walk, call a friend, listen to music, take a hot shower/bath, exercise, clean your house, polish your nails, surf the Internet, schedule outstanding appointments, watch television, look through a photo album, etc. \nKeep a food journal. Logging your food will help to identify your toughest timeframes. It also will make you accountable... so perhaps you'll be less apt to reach for unnecessary food.\n\nThree-food interference. Make the commitment to first eat three specific healthy foods before starting on caloric comfort foods (i.e., an apple, handful of baby carrots and a yogurt). If after that, you still want to continue with your comfort foods, give yourself permission. However, most of the time, the three foods are enough to stop you from moving on.\n\nExercise regularly. Daily exercise relieves stress and puts you in a positive mindset, which provides greater strength to pass on the unhealthy fare. \n\nGet enough sleep. Research shows that sleep deprivation can increase hunger by decreasing Leptin levels, the appetite regulating hormone that signals fullness. With adequate sleep, you'll also be less tired and have more resolve to fight off the urge to grab foods for comfort.

There is no easy way. It takes dedication and it takes patience. You need to learn to control your eating habits. Eat balanced, but small meals(reasonably small) Don't stick food in your mouth everytime you are hungry, stay away from the fad diets (fad diets do your body more harm than good) Drink plenty of water and excercise. 30 minutes a day three times a week. \nIt's simple. \nWeight watchers is a good program. You eat your own food, you learn to eat normally, you learn to control your eating, you learn how to eat what you want, but in controlled portions. \n\nDiet pills and all those silly fad diets are not the answer. They are not good for our bodies.

We eat around five. I don't like eating a big meal early in the day. There's nothing left to do and I always get hungry again later. Plus I'm not an early riser. Eating dinner at 8 would be fine with me!

Drink water... but you really should eat.  Hunger pains are an indicator that your body needs food.

eat in moderation.  Six small meals a day isn't that hard to do as long as your meals don't come from MacDonalds.  Keep your hands out of the cookie jar.

Try to find time to at least walk for 30 mins. a day. That will help.\nCut down on how much you eat at one meal.

I doubt it, but there is cause for me to be concerned.  Something is making you less hungry, and it could likely be depression.  I would go see your doctor just to be on the safe side.  Also he can rule out any other medical issues that might be causing this.

Good job in recognizing this as an addiction.  Please get some professional help immediately; almost no one can stop this on their own.  One factor that keeps you addicted is when you consistently undereat.  When you undereat, your body does its best to MAKE you eat -- and that means constantly causing you to think about food and obsess about food!  This sets you up for a binge.  You are fighting your own biology, and you cannot win.  The only solution is to accept your body's natural hunger and learn to eat whenever you're hungry, and treat yourself with kindness.  It is impossible to maintain a weight too low for your body and NOT obsess about food.  Once you're addicted to binging/purging, it will take time and effort to break the habits, but it absolutely can be done.  Hope this helps.  I've been there.

Eat small frequent meals throughout the day.  Big meals are 2 easily purged.  Drink more water.  And seek professional help
