food ADDICTION

Food addiction manifests itself in the uncontrollable craving for excess food that follows the ingestion of refined carbohydrates, primarily sugar and flour substances that are quickly metabolized and turned into sugar in the bloodstream.

Due to those uncontrollable cravings, a food addict's quality of life deteriorates when he or she eats sugar, flour or wheat. It can deteriorate physically, emotionally, socially and/or spiritually.

If any of the following symptoms are familiar to you, you may be a food addict:

Physical Symptoms of Food Addiction

• Do you think you cannot control your intake of food, especially junk food or high sugar foods?

• Have you tried different diets or weight loss programs, but none has worked permanently?

• Have you found yourself vomiting, using laxatives, diuretics, or exercising a lot to avoid a weight gain after you have eaten a lot?

Many food addicts are obese and have tried numerous methods for weight control (diets, drugs, surgery, etc.) yet nothing has created a permanent solution. Other food addicts have never been obese. Their physical weight has been controlled by extreme measures such as excessive exercise, purging through vomiting or laxatives (bulimia), or the severe and unhealthy limiting of food substances(anorexia). No matter which version of food addiction fits you, all of these symptoms become more severe with time and eventually lead to physical problems that can create an early and sometimes painful death.

Emotional Symptoms of Food Addiction

• Do you find yourself feeling depressed, hopeless, sad or ashamed about your eating or your weight?

• Do you find yourself eating when you are upset or reward yourself with food when you do something good?

• Have you ever noticed after eating sugar, flour, or wheat that you become more irritable?

Food addicts notice that their emotions become more severe, intense, or unreasonable when eating the addictive substances. For many food addicts, emotional life may deteriorate into despair, depression, or thoughts of suicide.

Social Symptoms of Food Addiction

• Do you eat in private so no one will see you?

• Do you avoid social interactions because you feel you do not look good enough or do not have the proper fitting clothes to wear?

• Do you steal other people’s food?

• Are you more interested in what food is served at social gatherings than looking forward to the warmth of being with the people attending?

A food addict’s social life is affected by intense obsessive thinking about food. Making eye contact with people and taking an interest in developing friendships or intimate relationships become secondary to locating and eating addictive foods. Food addicts often hide or steal foods and eat in secret.

Well the idea for the creation did come from the "better than sex" cake recipe. So, I guess it could wet dream material.

Oh. Yum.

So no more staple talk? Damn GG. I knew it was just a matter of time.

As for food porn....I had steak and shrimp for breakfast. Can't get more low carb than that. Plus the ribeye binds with the staples on the way out.

<sorry....needed one more farting....I mean parting.....shot>

I forgot to mention the shrimp was wrapped in bacon and stuffed with cream cheese!

You mean I have to staple my lips shut? Awww man! I didn't know you were old enough to be my mama, GG.

that's just mean... can't talk about food like that unless you bring some to share!

There's more but you better hurry. These little bastards go down so easy.

No…my little assholed dog decided that it would be a great idea to bark in the yard, and refuse all commands to come the fucked inside. Let me tell you, it's disconcerting when your doorbell rings that early.

I love the ED profanity. LOL

holy baby Jesus that's wet dream material.

I hope that's not one of the key ingredients.

I have apologized to the next door neighbors. On the left they were completely confused when I presented them with a pie and an original poem by Marley. But also kind of pissed that someone called the cops. The ones on the right (who I believe might have called) are not home but their box of crap goodies on their porch waiting for them to come home. If it's the neighbors in the back, they can go pee up a rope. I have never met them, and I'm not about to start now. I've been here 16 years, goddamned it, and they can get off my lawn.

Here is the poem Marley (the assholed dog) wrote:

I have this problem in the morning.

Of barking early, with no warning.

And dodging all attempts by mom

To get me inside and keep me calm

So here are some treats, and I hope they'll work

And show you I'm not a total jerk.

Yeah, yeah…it's lacking the right rhythm. Sue me. The kids are out finally putting the leaves into bags. The dog is outside barking again, and I just heard my eldest yell, "Marley! Shut UP! We don't need the po-po to come back and bust us again."

My neighbours have set dog control on me a number of times. They are totally intolerant. I have two tiny dogs, and I am at home with them 24/7. One day, I was taken to hospital in an ambulance and the dogs barked cos they were on their own. Enter dog control. Another time, my mom collapsed and died, and again the dogs were on their own. Yep, dog control again. But I think the neighbours got told off that last time, cos I haven't heard another thing. And after the last, completely unreasonable complaint, I no longer care if my dogs bark, and do nothing to stop them. So there!

It starts with having a pot big enough to hold an entire turkey and about 4 gallons of peanut oil. I take and inject a seasoning of butter, garlic and some other spices into the turkey breast and thighs. Rub the outside down with season salt and then shove a metal rod through the turkey that has a plate to hold the turkey on one end and a loop on the other that you put a hook into. Holding the hook, you drop the turkey into the pot full of oil. As soon as you start to drop it in, the skin seers over and creates somewhat of a shell around the turkey. This allows the turkey to cook with no oil getting into the meat and no juices from escaping the meat. It is the most flavorful, juiciest and succulent turkey meat you will ever have. I've seen people eat oven roasted turkey and have tons left over. When you fry a turkey, people literally will sit there and pick meat off the bones just to get very last bite. It's hard to explain just how good and flavorful it is. Just have to try it!

yummy!!!!!

I lol'ed. Marley is quite the poet. How could anyone resist? That's a heart melter right there.
