Consuming is the present participle of the verb "consume", which means to intake. As an adjective, consuming refers to an intensely felt emotion. For example, "he felt a consuming need to tell her how he felt". Basically, it means to get obsessed with an emotion. For example, "she was consumed with rage".

Consuming is also the act of expending, using up resources. For example, "my work is consuming most of my time" or "looking after kids is an extremely time consuming activity."

Consuming also refers to buy goods or services for immediate use or possession. It may also means to destroy or ruin completely. For example, "the fire consumed the entire building". Consuming may also mean to waste or to misuse.
