21. How long ago was this "research" done? Couldn't more current movies have been shown or is this info/study as old as the movies? 22. raisins are nasty in any way, shape or form.... and, "Sweet Home Alabama is one of the best movies I have ever seen!! 23. I HATED LOVE STORY 24. This is just another example of a stupid study. Who cares, why bother, get a life. 25. I agree with others on the whole raisin vs. M&M thing and with students how many of them do you actually think are going to eat healthy. Plus, no one likes Sweet Home Alabama 26. This must have been a very depressing bit of information for me. While I was reading it, I had to finish off the M&M's and the dark chocolate covered almonds! Had some for lunch too! LOL. Actually, I agree with #12.....Chocolate all the time! I love Oreos (double stuff), chocolate cake of any kind and I eat tons of Cherry/Chocolate chip ice cream. Hell, I even use chocolate scented bath products. My boyfriend loves chocolate too, but I won't say anymore than that. :) 27. When I am sad I will eat anything..usually what I enjoy most...chocolate or salty food. But when I am really sad, I do not eat anything. I guess the study didnt take degrees into accont. The M&M's vs. raisins study. I wished I had the money they received for that one.. I wonder what the outcome would have been if it was raisins vs. dirt. 28. POTATO CHIPS...ANY KIND, ANYWHERE, ANYTIME! I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO CONTROL WHEN IT COMES TO THEM. SAD OR HAPPY I CAN'T KEEP THEM IN MY HOME. I'M ADDICTED. 29. I do my BEST eating at 4 AM. I will lie there and think about how wonderful, bread and butter pickles with chunks of sharp cheddar will taste with some Ritz crackers... There is no way I can escape it!! Something launches me from the bed and next thing, I find myself with a little plate of the afore- mentioned snack. Ummmm so good.. BUT the dog wakes up, moves to my warm spot in the bed and waits for me to bring her some cheese... with her little beady eyes wide open. My moods are all the same.. and I am always hungry for something savory, salty, or crunchy... and it always makes me feel EVEN better !!! Try it sometime.. or better still. Have a slice of fresh bread with a little mayo and a couple very thin slices of onion on it.... Now that is snacking and mood elevating !!!! 30. Im 102lbs and I eat all the time... and acording to number 18 all models have no brains... Well I have to say I do have a brain... and I dont workout all the time and I think I have a great body... I dont diet or anything like that... I dont like it I just eat what I want when I want... I love food... 31. I am laughing out loud at Yenny's post! What a self-serving bunch of bunk! It is MORE difficult to perform highly intellectual/academic tasks than something physical???....it is impossible to make this assumption as they are two completely different forms of activity. If your premise was true..the acadamia world would not be overweight...the food "required" for these academic tasks would obviously be burned off, since they are a requirement for these so called "academic endeavors"!The reason so many acadamia people have paunches and are overweight is that they ignore the fact that the body also needs physical exercise.I think a lot of the acadamia folk are not nearly as smart as they think! Lived there once...don't care to go back!Sandy 32. When I'm sad I usually eat valium... But if I had to think of a food,I like lollipops or sucking candy. When I'm sick or sad. 33. At times I find the subjects herein to be inconsequential, at best. And, I'm further amazed at the amount of time and money spent on things of little or no value! There a variety of foods I personally think of as comfort foods. Many stem from my childhood. Soup, particularly chicken soup. Others I detest for the same reason. Hot or warm milk with honey can make me throw up, yet my mom would prepare it, religiously when I was ill. The idea still nauseates me. I really don't find analyzing these "idiosyncrasies" to be of any real importance. 34. Chocolate makes us feel loved. We associate chocolate with lovers who have given us such a pampered gift and so it reminds us of the feeling of being loved at times when we need it the most. Unfortunately, no matter how you try, it still doesn't work its magic the same when you buy it for yourself... 35. I ate a lot of white food after my son died. Cream of Wheat with white sugar, brie and bread and I stayed religously away from alcohol and medicine of any sort. My grandfather was a alcoholic, so I was afraid of triggering that nasty gene during an extremely stressful time. 36. I'm with Tania, if I'm sad or stressed for some reason the last thing my body wants to do is eat. But right now I'm happy and I could go for some raisins or M&M's 37. I really think the participants should weigh in. After all, the experiments did not include data on the behaviour of the same munchers when they were watching "happy" movies or sexually provocative movies. What would the chubby participants choose then? 38. Hey travelinzoo - Hang in there. You are on the money, but please know that it's a good life if we don't weaken. K? 39. As someone else wrote when something happens to make me sad I lose my appetite,can't eat. 40. yea, i agree...if im really sad, i dont eat...i may have a glass of wine or 2, but eating is on the last of my list. however, i tend to snack when my work schedule is changed, which happens often...this is why im a balooning 138 pounds. thank GOD i found the effin gym! ill be 125 in 2 months, at most! 1000-1500 calories a day, plus a workout every day! it works, and i feel great! |
