Guest guest Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 Evan, I remember realizing that the only 'definition' I had 'full' was FULL, as in just below bursting. I'm still not a wiz at feeling satisfaction vs. 'full' in time to stop eating a bite or two before I would best be served to finish on. But I no longer seek or appreciate feeling 'stuffed' at all. You will find this for yourself too I am very sure. Thanks for sharing that, its a good reminder for me and I appreciate it too.

Guest guest Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 I so agree! I really can't stand feeling even slightly full anymore. I love the feeling of not hungry, a rather neutral feeling of lightness and satisfaction mixed together but anything that is much more than that is uncomfortable to down right sick feeling now. I do appreciate my body showing me this. But yes, I also understand the little bit of sadness or regret that i can't continue to eat as much as my head wants, sometimes. But those times are coming fewer and farther apart now that I make sure the things I do eat are the things that most appeal to me out of my current choices. The feeling of power and joyful freedom I am now experiencing when i stop at no longer hungry far outweigh the regret though. Hands down!

Guest guest Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 Evan, I can relate to what you're saying. I'm working on not being too full at the end of a meal. It's better for me when I'm not eating out. But on the bright side, I'm getter better, yes I am. I realize i don't NEED that much to be full (happy) and I don't want to be uncomfortable. Certainly better than dieting ... it's going to work, I just know it will. Congrats on your recent discovery.

It makes sense, but it's still very strange. Evan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 Hi Sunny. If it's a matter of my head vs. my stomach, I have to take a moment or two now to think which is going to win out. And I'm finding it's not that painful. :-) Take care, TaiTo: IntuitiveEating_Support Sent: Tuesday, August 23, 2011 2:21 PMSubject: Re: Re: Sadness I so agree!
