    I find myself always being hungry. I am a very active person but bothered by always wanting to eat.

    I don't see how that is a problem. It's good to be hungry because you're always active. Its a "good" hunger.

    Look at it like a swimmer. They consume many many calories because they burn it all. When they stop being active their appetite maintains the same course. They blow up like pigs. I do not want to end up down that road.

    Then pay attention to how many calories you take in, and compare that to how many you burn.

    I have no idea. Young brain, not yet wasted on getting wasted, I guess.

    i like to eat too. unfortunately, i also find myself not able to get much excercise on account of the college workload, so I just skip a meal during the day, tends to help me knock down the calorie intake.

    That's an exaggeration. You have to be almost a professional athlete to have that happen to you. I swam a mile several times a week for many years, which is far more exercise than most Americans get, and I didn't have any trouble when I stopped. (The posture was too hard on my neck because of an old injury.)

    People get accustomed to a certain eating style, and that's what takes them down, not a genuine sense of hunger. They snack all the time without thinking about it and all it does is reduce the size of their gigantic meal portions. When they stop exercising hard they can't get out of the habit of constant snacking but they're not doing it because they're hungry.

    When you get older and decide to cut back on exercise--and I can't imagine why you'll want to do that unless you're just being an idiot about it now because you don't have anything else going on in your life--cut back gradually and your appetite will stay in synch.

    What ruins most people's ability to maintain a good weight is not an aberrant appetite but a history of yo-yo dieting. Eat too little (less than about 1600 calories for a normal size person) until they can't stand it and then they start bingeing. Do that a few times and you discover that you still have the physiology of a Mesolithic hunter-gatherer. If they lived in an era when seaons of bad rainfall or scarce game were common, they had to endure a famine because they had almost no surplus for emergencies. Their bodies went into famine mode, increasing the efficiency of their metabolism, canceling nervous behavior that wastes energy, etc. That's what happens to today's diet queens. Their bodies adapt to the artificial famines they have put them through. Their bodies are smart enough to assume that there will be another year with bad rain and scarce hunting, so they stay in famine mode permanently so they can now gain weight on 1000 calories. I watched my wife gain weight on a 1300 calorie diet after yo-yoing too many times.

    So the secret to avoiding "blowing up like pigs" is: NEVER GO ON AN EXTREME DIET. If you have to lose weight, cut your calories by ten percent and let it happen slowly, and adapt to an eating pattern you can stick to instead of both you and your body feeling like there's a famine that you don't deserve.
