Of feeling “satiety” is also dictated by our genetics and hormones. I hate how society misrepresents being overweight to strictly a self control issue. That needs to change. I admire your persistence and continued striving towards your health goals. For me, I try to live by the prophet Mohammad’s example (PBUH) He once said, “It is sufficient for the son of Adam to eat a few mouthfuls, to keep him going. If he must do that (fill his stomach), then let him fill one third with food, one third with drink and one third with air.” Eating until “satisfied” and not “full” you can say is a sort of intuitive eating and a way of practicing moderation which is important in all aspects of life in my opinion.
That's very interesting that this notion of moderating food intake pops up in multiple cultural traditions. Thanks for reading and for sharing your thoughts!
A good read! I was recently (this week) told I have a fatty liver. Whole foods seem to be the answer for me, too. I am proud of you for addressing your issues and being frank about your weight and health. I look forward to following your journey!
