Can't stop eating...?

I have a problem. I eat way too much. Like, I don't know how to stop. If I'm bored, I'll go eat cookies or something. If I'm walking around the house, I'll always wander into the kitchen to snack on something. If I calculate my caloric intake...it's probably about 2,300 or so. I don't have a weight problem, but with all the food I eat, my stomach is really starting to hurt.

I need advice..how do I stop overeating.

    Drink plenty of water so you don't confuse thirst for hunger. Eat filling foods like salad, potatoes and fruit. Go for a walk, or take up a hobby to stop you from getting bored and grazing. Get at least 8 hours sleep a night so you don't get tired and eat more because you think you need the energy.

    You maybe in some form of invisible stress that you didn't notice it. Stress can come in many forms, like school work, working environment, loans or bills you have things like that. You will need to get to the root of the problems.

    When one is stress, so I seen is that people go for shopping therapy which they will keep buying things they don't need just to satisfy the buying need or feeling.

    Same goes to eating, when one is stress up, one will keep eating and eating non stop just to satisfy the stress feeling or to get it away.

    I had the same problem as you before and I went to get myself eBooks about stress and I solve my problems.

    well if you dont have a weight problem and your eating 2,300 calories a day i dont see anything wrong with it. I know people who are really skinny and eat all the time b.c of thier metabolism. Now if you start gaining wieght than yea you might need to stop but maybe your body is just had a really fast metabolism and needs to wat/snack all day long, everyones diffrent.

    Do something to keep your hands busy. I put together puzzles or do Suduku it keeps the hands busy and the mind busy so that I am not absentmindedly eating things while watching tv or while I'm bored. Hope that helps.
