Absolutely possible to be addicted to some form of junk food...Nothing wrong with that as long as you eat it in moderation of course :smile:

...(yeh saying no more frequently is a good way to start! :biggrin:

)

Everyone needs some form of indulgence though...

I have the worst diet ever, and just the other day my friend kindly informed me that it is possible to be clinically addicted to foods like chocolate and crisps- and it stimulates the same parts of the brain as say, a heroin addiction does.

So in answer to your question- yes, it is possible to be addicted to junk food, but with all addictions, it can be cured, so don't despair.

Good luck! :smile:

Definitely possible. I'm learning to better control myself in terms of biscuits and cakes, but chocolate and sweets are still a big issue for me! Gotta love that sugar rush!!

i find i get bored with food very very quickly, and often, because my mom cooks the same dinners night after night, i start turning down meals and opt for junk fod instead.. it's really quite bad :s-smilie:
