Have you checked your front derailleur limit screws, or maybe recently bent something (if it's only just started to happen?) Take a look at the following:

If I remember correctly, it's always a good idea to make sure your rear derailleur is set up right before messing with the front one .. that's detailed here

i just noticed it recently .. the problem with it is not so much as in front pedalling but if i were to back pedal the chain is bound to drop off or to the inner chainring...

Is there some non-bizarre reason to use the large chainring in 1st gear?
