    Something that stood out to me in the post is the part about “even if they’re eating something delicious…” The reason why we stop when we’re full is that food stops being delicious when we’re full. I’m not sitting around with half a pizza in my gut thinking about how delicious another slice would be, I’m thinking about what a chore it would be to choke down another slice.

      That happens to me very quickly with most foods. Even addictive snacks that other people can finish a whole bag of I find tedious to eat more then a hand full of.

      A really good dessert that isn’t to rich and sugary can manage to get me to eat till I’m regretting.
