Oh my gosh, I suppose there are some people that fall into this category, not here at kickas though smile
If any dr accuses me of it(because I'm thin) I 'm going to reach in my purse and pullout a Reisen candy wrapper as proof,:) I am trying to kick that habit. I do mention diet to my rheumy and a couple of my other doctors. If I get a good reaction I'll talk more about it, but if they tell me I am thin then I just don't bring it up, I figure they are not interested.

Why don't I see more information and terms on over eaters and junk food eaters that are slowly but surely killing them through obesity, heart disease, diabetes, etc, etc??? Where are the so-called names for those people? Junkorexic? Do I need to start a Wikipedia page about Junkorexics? What about Diabetesexics? These people are killing themselves, not us. Some people have to eat healthily to SURVIVE. Otherwise I might have been a bad, bad statistic, if you get my drift...

And also may I add, included in my Wikipedia page about Junkorexics would be "Do you spend 3 hours a day or more thinking about you next meal or junk foods in general?" I am pretty sure that the vast majority of people with food addictions that are dying in front of our eyes do this. Does anyone do anything about it? Are there pages on Wikipedia or anywhere for that matter labeling and bringing to the forefront people who live to eat and dream about junk food all day? Even if so, it's never seen as big a deal as someone who wants to simply eat pure, healthy unprocessed foods...freaks we are, aren't we?!

I highly recommend watching the documentary Killer at Large. It will blow you away.
