This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

The hungry feeling tells you how soon to eat, not how much to eat.
And I think your stomach is more likely to tell you you're full sooner if it has been a while since you last ate.
Yeah this is the part a lot of people here are missing. If you just don't overeat for a week or two, that entire hormone pathway recalibrates pretty quickly and both your pre-meal appetite and fullness will trend towards being satisfied with less food.
The other thing see a lot is people who simply cannot tolerate any hunger at all. They must eat the moment they feel even slightly hungry, and this becomes an insanely powerful urge over time. It's ok to just be hungry sometimes, especially if you are trying to lose weight.
It's amazing how that works. I started intermittent fasting about a week ago (basically just skipping breakfast) and now when I do eat, I'm full after a few bites. So I'm eating fewer meals on top of eating less food per meal.
The stomach shrinks, yes? Has that been proven as well? I'm interested in this if you eat less you'll require less thing.
