What kind of eater were you?

I'm a shoveler. I got used to eating fast when I taught because of  lunch room duty. Still have to remind myself to slow down because I can eat so fast the body never gets the signal that it is full. I used to say I suffered from anorexia Ponderosa - my body didn't know it was fat enough.

Definitely an emotional (over)eater. Meals in front of the TV, snacks in front of the TV. Eat to celebrate, to overcome feelings of self-loathing (due to the weight!), boredom, loneliness, etc., etc. Haven't been much for soda.

Definately a soda and sweet tea aholic.  I was probably a bit of all of them.   I just liked to eat.  I still do.  :)    I've been slipping back into some old habits.  I'm having to beat myself up about.    Later, Dave

I was probably the overeater and binger. Never did a lot of sweets and alcohol, didn't eat much bread either. My top weight was only 305, so not having cravings for sweets or alcohol has helped me keep the weight off. I do eat sweets two days a week and the rest of the time I'm on high protein/ fat (Omega 3 and monofats) and limited carb.
