Would 70+ hours in 2 weeks count as too much gaming?

That's almost a full-time job gaming. So yes, I guess so  :D

Tonight didn't game for the first night in a while, instead worked on my project, and going to bed on time! Yay!

That's... one that can kill you, quickly. There's normal overeating (still bad), but there are actually people who can eat themselves to death.

The gaming is still not where it should be. Although more time is spent on projects, which are at least a tiny bit more constructive.

Oh, Don't worry, It's biologically impossible to kill yourself eating but you can die from being massively obese. I'm actually fighting my addiction through methods of genius type techniques a.k.a I stay away from food so I don't feel like eating it. The main problem is when I go back to school is resisting the all you can eat dorm. I can handle only eating one meal. But then they have like a huge amount of cookies and ice cream and cake. I have a sweet tooth it's so unfair. I wish they had like a special dorm plan that is no desert. However, I find if I eat alone I can eat very sparsely, but if I eat with others it erodes my ability to stop. I'm not constantly eating, I just eat too much overall.

Prader-Willi syndrome:

Sufferers can die from the condition due to over stretching and rupture of their stomach from excessive food consumption resulting in a life expectancy of 20 years old.

Now I feel like House MD ;)

But that's not what you have, luckily. On the bad side, eating can be a real addiction, and one that's hard to get rid of...

You choke over your food.
You die...

My town is practically the Weed Capital of the U.S. I feel lucky to not have any illegal addictions, but about half of the people I associate with smoke pot on a regular basis. It's difficult to find time to hang out with them all, when their idea of "hanging out" is getting high in someone's basement.
