yup ...not addicted..but then I think answers will differ depending on how long they have been on MFP..I have been here for 1.5 yrs and understand the relationship with food..0

Score: 14
Not addicted. Though they added underneath how others score and said possible food addiction. *shrugs* I'm working on it in any case.
That doesn't mean you have a possible food addiction, it just means the other option for you to have gotten IF you had scored higher was possible food addiction. As you answered, you got no addiction.0 -
It says I'm not addicted but I definitely am xD I think about food constantly!0

I did take the quiz twice and it came out exactly that way! prior to MFP and making the switch to a healthy lifestyle, I was definitely addicted to food and probably still am, but now i have it under control. Today for instance, I went out to breakfast and treated myself to biscuits and gravy. However, I DIDN'T consume the entire meal; I only ate half and realized I was full. This would have caused me significant anxiety a few months ago. The old me would've kept on going until the plate was clean.0

Not addicted! But I already knew that.
The first question threw me for a loop though. I eat when I'm not hungry fairly often. It just seems like a normal thing to do when you enjoy the taste of food.0 -

But I guessed I wouldn't be. I'm only here cause I like to eat lots of unhealthy food like deep fried fish n chips and chocolate. Yes you can get deep fried chocolate bars, yum
I get annoyed at all the food I have to keep preparing, so often get lazy and just make a sandwich for dinner. When I attempt to make actual dinners to often, I gain weight, so I'm working on a balance.0 -

If it were a quiz specific to Nutella, different story.0 -
I got 34 - Possibly addicted. I think that is a polite way to say "Definitely addicted" as most people didn't score nearly as high. I did the quiz based on how I felt 3 days ago, on the day that prompted me to get back on the wagon. That's how I started to wonder today if I am "addicted" to sugar, or food in general... I used to smoke, and quit cold turkey six years ago. I realized today that I would eat every time I was bored or stressed, and that's how it was with the cigarettes. I'm so glad I got back on MFP yesterday and started cutting out all the crap I was stuffing down my gob. Now time to make it a much smaller gob0
