Why do people eat when they are not even hungry?
Answers:
It comes from a lot of different thing, emotion, boredom, etc. I believe much of it begins in childhood. Many parents mistakenly teach their children to ignore signs of being full... finish up you dinner, or eat just two more bites, etc. This teaches a child to ignore the bodies feeling and push past.
People eat when they are bored. Nothing else to do. Cooking and eating take up time.
Eating for emotional reasons. This could also come from childhood. Parents offering food if thier child is unhappy, etc. The child associates the food with mom's love, etc and grows into an adult that needs to find assurance with food.
have nothing else to do
Because sum ppl have Obbessive compulsive disorder with food.or sumtimes, ppl are bored and eating is sumthing to do.. And other times, ppl r depressed, so they turn to food for comfort! all these things r unhealthy and lead to being morbidly obese....
cause we're bored!!!
good question. i'm wondering the same thing.
To fill a void within them.
Sometimes I do, I am super skinny but I guess I eat my feelings It is not fattening if you have a high or fast metabolism.
Because they crave the chemicals that are in the food not the food.
i think it's usually out of habit or boredom. Sometimes they just need to do something with their hands, so they shovel food into their mouths
stressed
Stress or boredom are generally the reasons. When people are stressed or bored, eating becomes a convenient distraction that keeps the mind and hands occupied.
Depression generally has the opposite effect; hunger goes out the window, and one has no desire for food.
Some people eat when they're not hungry because they're emotional eaters. Emotional eaters may eat when they're bored, sad, happy or etc. Some people eat when they're not hungry because of who they're with. I eat differently when I'm with my boyfriend than when I'm alone or with friends. Some people eat when they're not hungry because of situations. In the past they could have eaten while watching TV. Now when they watch tv they feel this need to eat. Some people eat when they're not hungry because they're on some time clock. My dad always eats three meals day at the same time every day. It doesn't matter where he's at or who he's with. He has to eat at 8am and 12pm and 6pm.
Out of boredum, I eat like that alot or just 'cause I'm in the mood for something.
Usually boredom.
