If you are reading this we already have something in common, trying to figure out the weight loss game. What a curse to go through your entire life trying to lose weight. This blog will tell you what I have done, what I believe and what I am doing to manage my weight. I encourage your questions and comments.

Food Addictions

Cevinia, Italy
I have spent the past week sharing a breakfast and dinner table with a food addict.  It's disgusting.  There are 6 of us sharing these meals and 4 of use are fit and nutritionally aware.  We discuss healthy eating and share information on nutritional benefits.  The addict even though he is sitting with us seems to be completely oblivious to our conversations.  He is obese and is obviously physically uncomfortable.  We also get to listen to him complain about being sick, being tired and how hard his day is.  He eats bacon, eggs and cheese for breakfast with excessive sugar in his coffee and takes everyones butter.  I don't think that he eats any fiber and he won't touch anything green.  The ignorance of this person is dumfounding.
I guess we all have some type of addiction but hopefully not enough to effect our health and gross out the people around us.
Here is a really good article on food addiction:
