If your eyes are bigger than your stomach you are in danger of becoming fat. I have an eye on the increase of obesity in the society. If you have eyes in the back of your head, then you see that not only eating too much makes you fat, also much car-driving instead of using your legs makes you fat; and you see,that this is a big problem especially in the industrialized so-called first world.

National election will be held in December that committed by Election Commission and the head of the Caretaker Government as we need to keep eye on the whole process of the national election. It is quite challenging as the country is now under state of emergency, only indoor discussions on politics is allowed. Open discussions on political issues are totally prohibited. It is surprising and question in mind of the people that how major political parties would participate in election as head of the parties are in jail and under the proceeding of the jurisdiction/ trial by the court who have been alleged involvement in corruption. We like democracy. But in the name of democracy the country was running in anarchism, nepotism that become haled/ pained the life of masses. This practice of democracy is not acceptable to the mass people. Therefore, political parties should learn the philosophy of the democracy before taking over the responsibility of the country. We want to see the Bangladesh as happiest democratic country where life of the people would be safe and secured.

Well, If I talk about bigger eye than stomach then I would say that everyone knows about their stomach and eye. But only the need is to find it in yourself. If you want to make your career bright you need not to hire someone else to have an eye on you, but it should be you only. Because only a person knows himself/herself about their eye and stomach, coz he/she has eaten the food(troubles) and responsible to have an eye on thme. I know myself my eyes are bigger than my stomach, I know how to control it if it goes in the opposite direction.I have eyes on the back of my head coz I know what people think and say about me when I left the place.

Episode from Russian fairy tale(my version))):Masha lives in Bear's house, but she wants to go home she misses her parents, toy, tv and so on. So she bakes a lot of pies and asks the Bear to deliver them to her parent's house. The Bear agrees to do that, anyway he wants to go for a last walk before his hibernation. Meanwhile Masha hides in the basket with pies and the Bear carrying her to her house. But he doesn't know about her presence. Half way through he feels himself hungry and wants to try one of the pies. But suddenly he hears Masha's voice telling him not to eat a single pie and that she has an eye on him. The only Bear's thought after such a shock is "She must have got eyes in the back of her head!!!"... The story has the happy end. Masha comes home. Everybody's happy: the Bear's glad to get rid of girl's monitoring (he hoped to get a nice little sister but not the Big Brother))). Parents're also happy, they've got their daughter back and now they have a lot of pies. However I guess they never eat them all. Their eyes bigger than their stomachs.

I do not keep an eye on her preparation for the party and I do not have eyes in the back of my head. However, I am sure that there will be so much food in her party because her eyes are always bigger than her stomach.

Every body talk about the mothers sixth sense only because they know everything that is happening to their children, but personally I think that it is only because 鈥淎ll mothers have eyes in the back of their heads鈥. When I was little I used to eat a lot of Ketchup and my mother used to hide it very well. One day I was with my nanny and left her in my room and then I went to the kitchen where I eat a lot of chips potatoes with a lot of ketchup. That night my mother called my and said: Pam I know that you did wrong, you know that you can鈥檛 eat ketchup. Next morning I asked my nanny and she tell me that she didn鈥檛 say anything.

although it's not a wise thing to do if we want to keep slim, my eyes become bigger than my stomach every time I go to a new restaurant; I eat so much that I almost throw up; so I really need someone to keep an eye on me at these times; any volunteers?????????? :-))))))))))))))

I usually have to keep an eye on my children as they are playing outside. Of course, my boss is a person that for sure have eyes on the back of his head. Last week he was sitting on his chair and Marco -another worker of my company- were behind him eating a sandwich. Suddenly, my boss said: "I have say many times that the office is not a restaurant, but is obvious that non all of you undertand what I say. Last week I went to a hotel buffet to have breakfast. Everything there looks delicious so I take eggs, jam, two sandwiches an apple, an orange juice and two black coffes. I couldn麓t finish all that "mountain of food". My eyes were bigger than my stomach.

to keep an eye on something does not mean ypu have eyes at the back of your head, but rather to watch by oppening your eyes widely. No, i have never seen eyes bigger than stomach before.

Hi everyone!I remember that when I was very young and my father asked me to keep an eye on something, I usually got nervous because I wanted to do my best, to pay all my attention to the situation ... but unfortunately I put too much effort in it and caused the irreparable damage!!! Unbelievable!

Last time in the final math test, I got to do a very, very, very, very, very, very, very..................... hard test. My friend had to do the same test. He is not in my class, but all 6 grade students must do the same test with the same question. Like I said, it is very, very, very, very, very, very, very..................... difficult. But, I done almost of them. My friend did all of them. But, after having some 'solution sharing' I see that he is wrong almost all of the answer. I done it perfectly right in the arithmetic, but a little wrong in the geometry. Yes, sir! I got 85/100, and he got 70/100. I am sure that will happen, because I got eyes in the back of my head. Beside, I'm a Wizard, right. I am going to haunt the Teacher if he is not going to make the next idioms videos fast. Do you hear me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Abalakaxanavolova!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

Oh yeah, one time, my Mom was going to go to work. Oh men, my Dad wasn't there to babysit my sister, so I got to keep an eye on her. Oh, please, may be, you have to use a thousand eyes to keep it on my sister. She is an elf! Don't you know that she always goes around the house, so, she knows everything. Last time, I ate my mom's sausage, she knew that instantly, so she told mom and in the dinner, I cannot eat my mom special saugage. Bad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My manager had asked me to keep an eye on the project and keep informing him of the progress. During a client meeting he was complimented by saying that he has eyes at the back of his head. My friends eyes are bigger than his stomach. He goes overboard while ordering food and most of it gets wasted even if he satiates.

When I was a child,my sister was always asked to keep an eye on me. My sister really didn't want to do that but she had to because my mother always had eyes in the back of her head. My sister is a very slender and beautiful girl even if sometimes her eyes are bigger than her stomach.
