Probably the two biggest differences between me and my heavier friends (and I've seen this my whole life) is that I do not eat food when I am upset, or bored etc. I am not a comfort or stress eater at all.

The second is that I feel full pretty easily. It is rare for me to finish anything. I never eat the whole meal, or dessert at a restaurant, and no mater how much people tell me I'm wasting food, I just will not eat past the point that I feel full. And I think I feel full earlier than other people do.

I'm a pp and i'm the same. I eat exactly what I feel like eating when I feel like it but stop when I'm full.  For example I bought a large bar of lindy chocolate to have at lunch at work on Friday. I ate half of it then. Then today I ate another few squares until id eaten enough. It's back in the work fridge now waiting until I crave chocolate again later in the week. A lot of my overweight friends would have eaten the whole thing in one sitting even if they felt completely stuffed.[/quote]

You sure know a lot about your friends hunger feelings.   Do you have access to their hunger sensors?[/quote]

As a thin woman it's easy to pick up on these things.  I've often noticed how my heavier friends finish their plates, order that extra drink etc.  [/quote]

I'm a healthy-eating overweight woman. I notice how my thin friends eat 1/3 of their meal and push it away and say they're full. I am incredibly jealous, because that amount wouldn't fill me up. Trust me, I've tried! I sit and eat slowly and wait to see if my stomach will register as even "satisfied" and not even "full" and I'm growling with hunger still. So yes, your overweight friends are likely making poorer choices than you, but some of us literally need more volume to even be slightly satisfied by a meal. Can you imagine how frustrating it must be to not have one slice of pizza and be full enough to be satisfied? Even with healthy, plant/fiber/lean protein-heavy meals it can take some of us much more food to complete a meal.

Hormones/metabolism affect weight as much as eating habits. We wish we were like you, trust me, but please don't judge all of us.[/quote]
