    I can't say I'm too surprised, as it says that an addictive eater thinks about food and eats very fast and has little control... I think that's my problem, I always feel like I need to hurry and eat and move on to the next thing. Whether I'm with family or friends, I'm always the first one done. I found the whoel thing to be pretty interesting... now to take a look at making some changes :)

    If I'm not even a big eater, how did I get 40 pounds over weight??!?!?!???

    LOL! I am the same way. Some things just aren't fair. In adulthood I haven't been a big eater at all, but that hasn't helped me with my weight at al.

    I'm a moderately high lazy eater.

    Lazy Eater

    Your Score: Moderately High

    Lazy Eaters tend to have very bad eating habits simply because they don't make the effort to feed themselves correctly. They may or may not eat to excess, but more often than not their problems arise from quality of food rather than quantity.

    Because they see eating as nothing more than a necessary inconvenience, Lazy Eaters value convenience over everything else. This means that they often opt for unhealthy, high-calorie snacks and fast foods for their meals, as well as pre-packaged meals. As a result, their diet is usually centered around fatty and processed foods that are high in calories and low in nutritional value.

    Lazy Eaters characteristically forget to eat meals and rarely have many good foods in their kitchen, if any at all.

    Everything else:
    Emotional Eater: Moderately Low
    Big Eater: Low
    Addictive Eater: Low
    Lazy Eater: Moderately High
    People Pleaser Eater: Moderately Low
    Control Freak Eater: Extremely Low

    Ooooh.....I took the test. Not shocked by the results, but I kind of wish it would've given some tips to work around the eating types!

    I am an Emotional and Control Freak eater...yep, could've predicted both of those!!!

    Eating my feelings is what got me here in the first place, and I'll admit, I obsess over food sometimes. At least now I'm obsessing over the right foods, and if I want to eat my feelings I'll go for a run instead!
