Food Craving/Addiction?

Published September 30, 2010

Question by geoffrey b: Food Craving/Addiction?
Hello. I am currently 16 years old and in 10th grade. I weigh 171 pounds and am 5’5. I find myself eating constantly. I could be eating my dinner, and in the next hour, be very hungry. I workout daily (cardio and Weight lifting) but the reason I am not in the shape I feel I should be in is because of this “addiction” to food. I have the will power to turn drugs and alcohol but unfortunatly not food. It sounds silly but it is preventing me from achieving a great body. I eat a lot of fruit and vegetables. My question is why am I so hungry? And what can I do to supress my cravings?

I was also wondering if it was because of my medications..
I am currently taking:
Focalin
Concerta
Abilify
Celexa
Nuraton

Thank you so much!
