I dont care whatever you say about if I dont eat my metabolism will slow down and i'll just put it back on. Im not eating. Im not eating breakfast I might have a sandwich and then my dinner. I get really hungry though. How can I cure this. Ive tried eating ice but its not always available. Drinking water makes me need the loo all the time and they dont let us go to the toilet unles its lunch or break at school.

bunny	ALWAYS EAT BREAKFAST Try eating oatmeal or something high in fiber. Fiber fills you up longer. Eat more fruits and veggies and NEVER starve yourself because like you said you WILL binge later. Chewing gum does work but you also MUST drink lots of water. It is very good for you and you can never get to much of it. Water also fills you up. You can also get great ideas at the Weight Watchers website as www.weightwatchers.com on the message boards, they are free to sign up for.

The Dream	stop being anorexic?

Champagne	Keep on eating fresh air as that's all you seem to be living on - enjoy.

JusMe	Drink water and get your parent to write a note to allow you to go to the bathroom when (you) have to. That's ridiculous not to be able to go when you need to. Eat protein bars or 1/2 cup of almonds when you get hungry. Make sure the bar is a healthy one w/out a lot of sugar.

Katie R	smokin or chewing gum

Deborah	First of all, you really should eat a good breakfast. You can eat more at breakfast because you'll have more time during the day to burn the calories you've consumed. You also won't be starving during the rest of the day. Whenever I'm really hungry and don't want to eat, I will chew gum, brush my teeth, or drink a huge glass of water. Try waiting a few minutes after doing each of these, and focus on something else; you will see that many times, your hunger will fade away.

Mike	Frankly, this isn't a very healthy way to loose that weight. But if it's working for you, and you are going to continue, then I'd recommend that you add some fiber to your diet, even if it's citracel or bentiful...any fiber that adds bulk to your stomach when you are drinking a lot of water. You'll find that you don't pee as much and have better BM's.

KAREN F	Its simple tried and tested, Drink lots of fresh water you should have minimum of 2 litre per day and I find if im hungry if I have a small bottle of water between meals and maybe an apple it sorts the problem out. It works trust me. Good luck.

Joe	you should really eat breakfast...if you want to skip a meal skip dinner. and you will either need to drink more water and go to the bathroom more or eat high fiber things like leafy greens etc to fill you up with little to no calories. if you are goign to starve yourself at least take vitamins. And again skipping dinner is smarter then skipping breakfast. the calories you don't use after dinner turn into fat over night. breakfast calories will be burned throughout the day.

atsa z	U may get vegetable soup when u r hungry otherwise u may harm your stomach as it is producing acids & when it is empty it is harmful . But getting something with almost no calories & full of vitamins & minerals as well as fiber could be great to your health & even good for your skin ehen loosing weight.

Maria B	you are MORE likly to PUT on weight for not eating breakfast, its simple- 3 healthy meals a day and exercise thats all it takes, so EAT!!!!!!!!!!

dylansmom25	umm duh... if you;re hungry you need to eat.. there is no cure for this.. this is a very unhealthy wayto lose weight . you will make yourself sick or anorexic and end up in the hospital..

angelsrus	Most people associate being hungry with noises in their stomach or that so called 'hunger' feeling. It is just in your mind. Tell yourself you are not hungry. As long as you have something for your breakfast, lunch and dinner then this is all your body needs. Don't drink too much either, just a sip or two when that 'hunger' feeling gets the better of you, will do until your body gets used to its new routine.

bluepisces	i think you should eat but thats my opinion try drinking inicent smoothies there lovely and fill you up hope this helps

marski	Well, think of it this way.......if you deprive your body from the nutrients/fuel that it needs, it is not going to function well. What do you think that food is? It is our body's fuel source. Think of it this way, if you start out in the morning to go to work or school and don't put gas in your car, you're not going to go far if it's on empty, are you? The body is the same, don't fuel it for the day and it's not going very far. If you deprive your body from fuel, it will go into "reserve mode" that is what slows your metabolism down......your body thinks that you're starving it so, it slows down the rate that you are burning fuel, simply put. If we have a high metabolic rate, our body burns the "fuel" much faster, thus, weight loss. If we slow our body's fuel imput down, our metabolic rate lowers, lowering the rate at which we burn fuel. I know that you think that if you don't eat, how can you possibly gain weight? You might not gain weight, but you're not going to loose it as quickly, or feel good. Remember this, good skin, beautiful hair, a clear thinking brain.....they all need nutrients and that comes from your diet! If you deprive your body from the fuel that it needs. your skin will become dull, your hair lifeless etc etc. Look at the girls in your school that are very athletic, bet that they eat, they just know how and what to eat, that's all, Good luck, you'll be just fine.

dublin lady	chew gum

lynziemarierose	chew gum

Rob M	Sleep once you feel hungry

Liam	hmmm, this is a tough one, if u havnt already, i would pop down to ure local doctors, or just eat, i always feel hungry if i dont eat, and I do something to take my mind off it, then I dont feel hungry. Try watching ure favourite film or ure favourite channel on TV and see if that helps :)

youlookingood	drink a smoothie!

Big T	Try using Benefiber. Just mix it up in a glass of water; follow directions on the bottle. It will make you feel bloated and not hungry.

Summer	You're always going to be hungry if you don't eat and yes you will put on more weight once you get back to reality. If you want to lose a few pounds exercise 30 minutes a day 3-5 times a week and eat 5 times a day. Breakfast is important because it jump starts your metabolism for the rest of the day. Really, you should stop this or seek help. Do you really want to put your family and friends through this stress?

Blond&Tall	Yea he's right.. try sugar free gum.. tea with splenda or coffee. If you really are overweight you need to be strong. Even an obese person who begins to actually eat healthy, will feel hungry, even though they are clearly too big. Why? Well because the human body automatically stores extra weight, just in case (this would never happen nowadays) there is a famine or you are unable to reach food. So in short, DON'T LISTEN to your stomach, listen to the facts and your head. Walk about 30 minutes a day, and eat the recommended calories for your height, minus 500. This will get you to the perfect weight. Good Luck!

Outspoken but Honest	Most people that eat breakfast do not gain weight so you would be better forcing yourself to start the day with a little food to keep your blood sugar up . I like to eat some porridge as it keeps me full until lunch time.

island3girl	eat high fiber foods

*<3 Hollywood* <3**	I dont eat much either but get hungry, jst take a sandwich to school and cut it in half, then at break eat you first sandich and then bout 2 hours later eat your second sandwich, when you get home from school, have a pint of water every hour or wenever you need a drink, it doesnt matter if you want to go to the loo cause your at home and water fills me up, i love it!! and its a gd diet lol, try to do 40 sit ups a nite aswel cause tht will tone you up and then you belly will be nice and toned! good luck =]

Russ	try chewing gum?

Jason K	When it comes to losing weight, the following eight food strategies have helped thousands of my personal clients achieve their goals. Go ahead and give them a shot! • Fiber -- Both types of fiber, insoluble and soluble can help your weight loss efforts. • Insoluble fiber provides volume to food without adding a lot of calories. Foods rich in insoluble fiber include high fiber cereal, whole wheat bread, wheat bran, fruits and vegetables. • soluble Fiber helps stabilize your blood sugar levels, which in turn can better control hunger and cravings. Also, this type of fiber slows down the transit time of food in your gut, so it may keep you fuller for longer. Foods rich in soluble Fiber include strawberries, apples, pears, oatmeal, chickpeas, and beans. • Juicy Foods -- Fruits and veggies with a high water content "built into the food" helps to fill you up, so you'll eat less collectively throughout the day. Go for watermelon, lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, mushrooms, grapefruit, and cantaloupe. • Lean Protein -- Protein can slightly rev your metabolism after ingestion (more so than carbs and fat). Be sure to include some type of lean protein with every meal. Good sources include chicken breast, canned light tuna, wild salmon (fresh and canned), egg whites, crab, shrimp, tilapia, turkey breast, tofu, lean red meat, low-fat dairy, beans and lentils. • Foods That Make You Work -- People eat less of the very same foods when they require a bit of work. For example, buy shelled peanuts versus unshelled peanuts and prepare soybeans in the pod versus the straight bean. • Sugarless Gum -- Contrary to what people think, sugarless gum does not stimulate your appetite. In fact, it's a great way to give your taste buds a shot of flavor and prevent yourself from popping something caloric in your mouth. Keep a pack of sugarless gum on hand (or a pack of mints). • Hot Beverages -- Sipping a hot, low-cal beverage is a great way to stave off extra calories when you're looking to eat out of pure boredom. And because they're hot, you'll have to slowly sip over an extended period of time. Choose beverages under 100-calories such as green and herbal teas, diet hot Cocoa, skim latte and cappuccino, and reduced sodium bouillon. • Spicy Food and Capsaicin -- Personal clients and research have reported that you're often satisfied with less food when the meal is spicy hot. Plus, you automatically eat slower and drink more water! If your taste buds can handle the heat, add chili peppers, hot sauce and salsa to your meals. • Pre-portioned Snacks -- There's no chance of overeating when you only have one portion in front of you. Try the following legalized snacks when you want something fun: 100-Calorie Pack, Glenny's Soy crisps, Skinny Cow-Silhouette flying saucer, Healthy Pop mini bag microwave popcorn, Nature Valley granola bar, Pria bar, People Pop, Tootsie Pop, Weight Watchers ice cream pops, or a Swiss Miss/Jell-O fat free pudding.

maggieclaich	eat you idiot. Eat BREAKFAST and skip dinner. At least you might burn off your breakfast calories throughout the day.

pamskella	You can't stop yourself being hungry. You are being really silly. Not eating is really unhealthy, and youa lready know how silly it is. The only way to stop being hungry is by EATING. Try eating something wholemeal for breakfast (e.g. porridge) then you won't be hungry for ages as it releases energy slowly.

DR V	Try hoodia supplements. I have found that they keep me from getting hungry if i know i will miss a meal.
