Betcha mouth’s watering when u see all these pics.. :D photos are all courtesy of helena.. :D :D :D (i have this habit of taking pics of food)

anyways, i’ll be blogging about an eating disorder called binge eating.. our topic is actually effects of dieting. when the word diet comes into mind, you probably would think of starving yourselves but look in another perspective, what about an overconsumption of food kind of diet or in a simpler word, over eating.

what is binge eating?

  • periodically does not exercise control over consumption of food
  • eats an unusually large amount of food at one time (on average, 1500 calories).
  • eats much more quickly during binge episodes than during normal eating episodes
  • eats until physically uncomfortable
  • eats large amounts of food, even when they are not really hungry
  • always eats alone during binge eating episodes, in order to avoid discovery of the disorder
  • often eats alone during periods of normal eating, owing to feelings of embarrassment about food
  • feels disgusted, depressed, or guilty after binge eating

im sure you’ve heard of the words comfort food. such as chocolates (mostly for women :D ), chips etc.. these are food that people tend to indulge themselves in when stressed. more often than not, they will over consume it at one time, which is not good for ur health..

eat everything in moderation. take pity of ur heart and blood vessels which will soon be clogged by harmful trans fat from all those unhealthy junk food!

P.S: and btw,, im not suffering from any case of binge eating, those pics are taken on different days and occassions.. :D
