What are we looking for?

Living condition How do the communities function Find interviewee Prepare for questions in interview Details may interest the readers

Some Details_Happy or not? 不开心时我就喜欢吃，吃的时候我就不开心。循环

往复，生生不息

吃的时候整个大脑是空白的。谈不上很开心，但是会忘记不开心。 结束了之后会很困扰。 然后又继续用吃来忘记不开心。 循环循环再循环。

吃到肚子撑着难受还要吃 ~~ 经常边吃边哭 ~~~~ 我觉得自己根本就是糟蹋食物！

Some Details_What to eat? 有一回家里没有吃的东西，我就硬生生的吃

了很多豆腐卤（酱豆腐）。好咸 - - ！

记得从前有 BS 的时候吃过我家宝贝的狗粮，把狗的饼干，亮毛片，奶粉吃了

Some Details_How much? 2 个大西瓜 2 个好长的瑞士卷 一罐金枪鱼 4 盒百力滋 5 个咸蛋 1 个

皮蛋 2 杯加奶加糖的咖啡 一个布朗尼 一个千层雪里蛋糕 12 包海苔 2 盒全麦饼干 2 条趣多多 5 条牛肉 4.5 包鱿鱼仔。

7 个 KFC 劲脆鸡腿堡， 1 个深海鳕鱼堡 ， 4 个大油饼 3 瓶王老吉凉茶 ， 2 瓶矿泉水

稻香村：糖火烧 9 个，盘花酥 50 个，蜜三刀 9 个，红豆烧 2 个

一桶爆米花，一碗牛杂粉，一袋仟吉南瓜吐司面包， 6 个费列罗巧克力，一袋趣多多，一袋小的奥利奥，半个菠萝，一袋红烩味薯片，一袋良品铺子的薯片，四包笋片，四个酱鸭舌，一个果冻。

我最喜欢看这种帖子了 ，完全是来求安慰的 ，每每看完大家暴的东西以后， 无耻地觉得自己暴得原来不算太多。。。。

Some Details_How much? 一锅白饭，就在刚才一边看帖子一边吃了一锅白饭！变态啊变态 ...

1斤饼干也值得说呀？我月饼都能吃 2斤了，再吃掉 1 整盒精选版的德芙巧克力， 800克的那种，超级诱人，再吃达能和鬼脸嘟嘟，还能塞下去 5 ， 6包，我中秋节那天就是这么吃的。这还只是午饭，晚上又吃了 3斤冰皮月饼，我最喜欢玫瑰味的，好软好香，一口下去与世无争别无所求。今天刚称了170公分只剩下 88斤

我最厉害的是中秋节那一次，大礼盒装的月饼， 950克一袋的我吃了 3袋， 1公斤烤羊肉，然后直接是1 包 4袋奥利奥就着牛奶吃了。中午， 11 个意大利板栗饼，一盒 15 个老婆饼， 5 包鬼脸嘟嘟和 2包趣多多加 2 包广合绿茶曲奇，还有很多饭菜，这就不说了。下午， 2斤冰皮月饼， 1 盒纪念版精选德芙，共 800克。晚上， 1 大盆粉蒸肉， 1只生日蛋糕， 1斤长崎蛋糕， 1斤香蕉船面包， 1 盒寿司卷。 所以说，你们只是吃的花样多，量并不多，跟我比起来你们是在不算暴食。那天我家里人都被我吃的吓坏了，以为我要胃爆棚，结果没事，只是感觉很撑。

Some Details_Feelings 你也会有一天明白，心里的饿，需要的是温暖，不是食物。

到后来跟上了发条的机器人一样 完全不在乎吃进去的东西好不好吃 完全不在乎吃了多少东西进去 只觉得 身体很空 需要塞东西进去填满它 所以 经常吃到想吐吃到鸡皮疙瘩 完全是在受罪 不是在享受

我想引起别人的注意别人的关心
