Why are people satisfied in being full? (eating)

...I always find it to be a major letdown. The last forced piece of pizza is never as thrilling as the first. :/

No, I don't have a weight problem or any eating disorders. I am eating lunch right now though.

There's a point where I just feel nauseated with every bite, and that's when I stop eating. How I can eat to that point, and still be one of the most emaciated people this side of Ethiopia, is a real mystery to me...

I like being full. I dunno why, it's just a great feeling. Problem is that it takes like 2 minutes after being full before you really feel it, which means you probably taken about 10 bites too many. THEN you feel like shit.

I almost never eat until I'm full...I eat until I don't like the taste of what I'm eating anymore. I sometimes take a week to eat one chocolate bar for example.

stuffed =/= full



satisfaction with being full could be an evolutionary hangover from when we ate what we could when we could.

This is full unfounded but it makes sense to me.

Continuing to eat while you know you're full is a throwback to the evolutionary times, when time between meals could be days.

The snakes transmitted internal parasites to you that eat all your food. Look it up on google.

Edit: Oops, mixed you up with Boa Constrictor, I meant the cats.

Same problem here. Ever since I got my tonsils out my love for food died, I eat to survive, that's all. I can't pig out for food, once I feel satisfied (stomach stops rumbling), I'm a happy man. I'm also skin and bones, so yeah...
 
When i was much younger, i ate until i was stuffed. Life was so fucking good. The last few bites aren't as good as the first, but the amount of goodness from the point where your hunger was filled to where you're stuffed adds up. It's even better when you live with your parents and the house is fully stocked with goodness.

When i started to care about what i look like, i ate until i 'wasnt hungry'. Eventually when you do that, it takes progressively less and less to make you full. It's weird, because whereas at the age of 16 i used to be able to eat a medium pizza without being totally full, i can have two -three slices and it'll be all over (at the age of 21), though i rarely eat pizza now anyways.
