[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First, there may be something physiological. Don't discount it, and don't pay attention to people who do. Personally, I pay no attention to anyone who is normal weight and never struggled with weight because they have no idea what it's like to be in my body, and their advice is worse than useless. As an example of what I deal with: I am almost never, ever satiated. I am always hungry. I can eat a meal full of fats, proteins, and low carb and I will be hungry again in less than 30 minutes. I don't have the satiation signals others do. In any event, it took close to ten years to diagnose, but it turns out I have a serious autoimmune disorder. I'll never be normal, but life is better now that I'm finally under treatment.

In addition to treatment, I can only control weight by setting strict time limits on when I eat. I don't eat after 8 or before 2 pm, although I drink bone broth in the morning. I have also trained myself to live with hunger on this schedule. Since I am always hungry, it just meant learning to live through it rather than satisfy it. It's not wonderful to be hungry, but I view it as something I have to deal with as part of my overall health.

I had an interesting experience a few years back where I was put on a medication that made my satiation "normal." OMG. It was so, so easy to not overeat. I could not believe how easy it was. It made me realize just how different my body is from all those sanctimonious, fat-shaming asshats. They are so freaking lazy (and lucky) and have no idea.[/quote]

I don't know why you think this. There is so much variation in the human body.[/quote]

Bodies are very different. I don't see how this is close to delusional. Personally I sense the person claiming it's delusional is just resentful.[/quote]

So before the 1970s (when most Americans were thin), did Americans feel full faster?  Do Europeans now feel full faster?  Because as a thin person it’s incredibly easy to spot the habits that make me thin and others fat.  Of course there are exceptions, but most Americans eat too large of portions, snack, don’t exercise enough and eat too many processed foods. [/quote]
