Question

So lately I have been HUNGRY all the time and I dont know whats wrong with me. I'm constantly eating and at my age (22) probably not the best thing for me to be doing, but i can't help it. I do smoke and i thought maybe thats why i was always hungry, but im not sure.

Answer 1

Exercise more. I find I eat healthier when i exercise

Answer 2

First off, you've probably heard this a million times but smoking is sooo bad for your health in the long run so you should do something to stop that as soon as possible. About the eating problem, it's actually kind of good that you are constantly eating because you're giving your body a steady supply of energy and it prevents you from overeating (or indulging) later on. What you really need to think about is portion control. Make sure you don't eat over your limit. Also your appetite may be caused by the type of foods you eat. If you want to satisfy your hunger for a longer period of time, skip the junk food and eat healthy foods with more fiber. This may be painful but you need to start eating more fruits, vegies, and whole grain foods. Well...Good Luck! =D

Answer 3

The most common reason can be you are really really stress out. Because if your body feels tired and worn-out, makes you feel hungry so he can refuel.
Once when I had to do a college paper I kept myself up over 46 hours and by the end I wasn't sleepy at all, I was hungry all the time.
Try to sleep at least 10 hours for a couple of days and see if that helps.

Another reason it can be what's called empty calories food. I believe that if you eat a lot of that kind of food, although you are eating a lot your body still feels empty as it didn't extract any of the essentials nutrients from it, so your body is still hungry.

Answer 4

The only thing I know for sure is that if you're not eating a recommended diet, like if you're skipping breakfast and/or lunch and eating a lot at night, that can be part of it. I go through spurts where I'm really hungry too, but it's usually when there's next to nothing in the house and no money for groceries!

Answer 5

Well, if you are physically on the normal weight, you have nothing to worry if you eat a lot. Eating is good but too much is not good as well. As long as you are healthy no problem with eating a lot but not too much. Not only at your age that smoking is not the best be doing by anyone. Everybody knows that it is dangerous to human's health. Therefore, that is what you should stop doing.

Answer 7

Smoking is an appetite suppressant. It should make you less hungry. Maybe you're confusing hunger with boredom or loneliness.

Answer 8

R u pregnant, if not snack on healthy foods make sure yiur not eating junk food.

Answer 9

You may be pregnant. I would take a test just to be on the safe side.

Answer 10

check your blood sugar and thyroid. usually endocrine problems cause this (diabetes, hyperthyroidism)

if that's ok...check your hypothalamus: that's where appetite centre located

if that is ok too...see a psychiatrist...
