PP. That's an interesting theory if true. I have wondered if the need to overeat which many people seem to have is a form of addiction that changes one's hunger cues over time. Like you start overeating for whatever reason and then over time your body needs more food to feel full, like developing a tolerance to a drug.

I absolutely believe this. I have always been a normal weight but if I go on vacation, for example, where we are just eating and lots of rich and decadent foods that I would normally eat once in a while but there I'd be eating day in and day out, at first, I would get nauseated by SO MUCH FOOD. But over time, I think your body somehow adjusts and that becomes your new normal. But this is the thing that I think many overweight people don't really "get" - the same thing happens in reverse. Thus, if you are used to eating SO MUCH FOOD, but spend a few weeks or a month adjusting back down to normal portion sizes, your body/hunger cues will also adjust and you will not feel hungry. I constantly hear people accusing normal weight people of "starving themselves" and "being hungry all the time" when, in fact, you just don't need as much food to feel full in that state. I think a case can be made for this phenomenon. [/quote]

Right, but it's incredibly difficult to adjust down because you get so hangry! Then you break down and eat a snickers and the cycle continues..[/quote]
