[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]When people let themselves get hungry, they overeat.[/b]

It's better to eat regular healthy snacks, like apples, carrot sticks, etc.. between meals so you are not starving when you sit down.

Also, I make my child take a break from dinner if she wants seconds.  "If you are still hungry in ten minutes, you can have seconds".  She just has to give her body a chance to realize the food is in there and her hunger is sated.[/quote]

Not everyone. That is a huge generalization. [/quote]

+1. I am one of those who can skip a meal and those calories never get made up. I always think -- oh I'll eat double or at least 1.5 times at the next meal -- and it never happens; I may compensate by eating 1-2 tablespoons more but when I'm full, I'm full. So it isn't true for everyone that hunger leads to overeating.[/quote]
+2 and the reverse is almost not doable, if I overeat in a meal, I am not able to cut down later, overeating just leads to more of it. On the other hand if I fast and then eat, food not only tastes great, I am inclined to lower portions. Of course this applies to me as an overweight adult.[/quote]
