Just Don’t Know What I Want

To eat. I feel hungry and go to the fridge, open door, and stand there. Nothing appeals to me. Maybe I'm just bored.

I hear ya! I've got a freezer and refrigerator full of food, but am thinking about ordering a pizza. Not even sure if that's what I want.

@rms1954 Me too! That's why I always have bread and PB&J on hand. It keeps the headaches and growling tummy away.

Sometimes when you think your hungry your just thirsty. For some reason I have been craving chocolate 🍫 all day long.

Sometimes I want junk food, and looking at a fridge full of healthy stuff is depressing. My standby is pb&j, just like @grandma2pkmh .

I keep a generous supply of Campbell's Chunky Chicken Corn Chowder on hand for such occasions. It's good and filling, my favorite soup.

When I get like that it is usually an indication that I subconsciously either want something salty, sour or spicy.

After eating a few green olives or a dill pickle or two or a spoonful or two of horseradish based cocktail sauce I'm usually satisfied and can then decide on something to eat.

I felt like that, too, this afternoon ... I ate half a bag (large bag) of Fritos ... now I'm sorry.

@SoX

I do that, too, and then regret it big time. But for me it is usually something sweet.

Frankly, I am sick of eating, thinking about what to eat and thinking about what to buy at the grocery store. DH and I eat out and usually bring 1/2 home with us. Tonight we had left overs....

Today at the grovery store I discovered SNYDERS pretzels they are short twisted rods.... they are sour cream and onion flavored, they are pretty good for a snack.

I usually don't buy that sort of thing but for some reason they looked good...and they are!

What I hate is, coming home from the grocery store, unloading six bags of groceries, only to find myself staring into the fridge unable to find anything I want to eat an hour later. That's just messed up.

Some of the replies made me laugh as I thought of my son as a teen. DH and I would come home with bags and bags of food and he'd ask "Did you get anything good?" LOL

I decided on graham crackers with jelly. I wanted peanut butter too but that's too difficult for me to digest. Having some stomach issues lately. Keep losing weight and I don't know why. I am down to 65 lbs. I'm so tired.

Anyway that's what I chose ... not very exciting but it kind of hit the spot sort of. Thanks for all suggestions.

This is a typo, right? Surely you weigh more than 65 pounds. If you keep losing weight and you don't want to, that's a doctor discussion.

When you don't care what you eat, I say why not take the opportunity to eat something healthy? Either a) you'll get the benefit of healthy food or b) you'll suddenly realize what you'd rather have instead.

There's nothing wrong at all @rms1954 with eating graham crackers and actually I eat them often as I love them. I am concermed for you and hope you get back to feeling like eating. You said in post that you are tired as well. Please take care and know I and others are thinking of you.
