Hey MFPers,

I ran across a great article on CNN today for those of you struggling with your obsession with food.

This is actually something I struggled with for years, but once I was able to overcome it, the pounds just started coming off.

There is some great advice in this article along with some tips that may help get you over the hump as well:

    ive found that i actually never used to think about food.
    i didnt really have a food addiction, just bad habits.
    i wouldnt eat enough nutritious foods. and i would not eat then get really hungry and have a huge meal. or eat when i wasnt hungry, just because someone bought me something or i felt like it. but i didnt even think about it. and everybody is like that these days. which is why everybodys getting fat, although i wasnt a binge eater or anything i gradually gained weight over a period of time because of these little 'habits' and eating more then 1 serving.

    i think about food all the time now, it was probably a bad obsession at first, trying to lose weight.
    but now i think less about calories and more about nutrition and i am always thinking about food&nutrition, but in a good way. a healthy obsession!
