My dirty little secret: I think about food more then sex

Last night as I was enjoying every bite of my fatty food I came to a realization: I love food so much that it’s on my mind more then sex, good sex.  It’s sick I know, but I do, I do think about food and the joy of eating it.  I need help like right now. :)

 My boyfriend is aware of my love affair with food.  Seriously, I would throw a tantrum when I don’t eat; yet I don’t care if I go without sex.  He knows he’s #2 and always will be.  I do try hard not to think about food but it’s always there: I think about food as I’m eating it, I get a pleasure in planning what I get to eat next, My favorite shows are all food related,  I dream about food….food food food - it’s my sick obssession. 

I realize as I was watching some specials on morbidly obsese people on the Discovery channel, that  If I don’t control my weight through eating right and exercising -  I could be in their shoes.  A lot of times I see myself in their eyes except I’ve done a better job of keeping the weight off. 

 So no gambling or drug addiction for me, food is my addiction.

    Wow, I think I am guilty of thinking of food more than sex too…
    But on a serious note, I think I am (or at least was) and might still be morbidly obese and worry about it getting out of control if I don’t do something about it.
    I don’t get the Discovery Channel but saw it on youtube how a woman was addicted to food (just like alcohol or anything) But I am glad I am on the right track…

    I think more about food than sex. Definitely. I yearn for certain foods much more than sex. Of course, if I had no sex at all maybe I’d be as skinny as a rake dreaming about sex and not thinking about food.

    The difference is we need to eat, and eating is more of everyone’s life,regardless of age, gender, beliefs, than sex. When we are out we are bombarded with places providing food, and the television programmes and magazines I skim through are all full of food, not sex. Also food and family celebrations go hand in hand with me. Sex is definitely not in the same category!

    Diva! I am guilty as well. Food has such a LONG LASTING effect and quality to it. From preparation of the ingredients(foreplay) to eating (sex) , then afterwards the glow (full and happy belly).
    So yes, if I had to vote, I choose food!
    I can imagine, me in my sexy nightie with a steaming plate of wheat pasta, flavored with parmesan cheese and steam brocolli on the side with a pat of smart butter.
    MMMmmmm, not even 200 calories, yet the benefits of a healthy meal are long lasting……………………
