I'm so full right now. Finished the spaghetti I ordered... that was supposedly meant for 2-3 people. Lord help my stomach.

If there's one thing I've learned over the years, is that I'm definitely a couple, maybe even a small family as far as food servings are concerned.

I would've been able to finish the whole thing if I ate it by itself, but I felt overconfident and ate some cereal beforehand.

I usually need a second portion when it comes to the 1 person portion stuff they sell in supermarkets here.
Idk who that 1 person is, but they sure eat little... they must've looked around for the person with the tiniest stomach for that benchmark!

Didn't you start your own business or something like that?

Duck December 11th, 2021 5:52 AM

239632

Oh, a business owner. Nice.

I've already thought about that, and my conclusion was that it's probably because we overeat ^^
Most of us eat based on the volume of the food, while we should eat based on the amount of calories ^^

Cooler spits facts. I used to count calories two years ago, and lo and behold, I was able to regulate my weight!

Thing is though, you'll have to eat healthier to feel more satiated that way. Junk food tends to be soo calorie dense that you won't feel that you've already eaten two meals' worth.

Megan December 11th, 2021 11:41 PM

Taking your time while eating is also important. Afaik your body takes 20 minutes to register that you've been eating and only then gives off the signal of being done. So if you're a fast eater and get done in a lot less time your body still hasn't realized that and you still feel somewhat hungry.

Roni December 12th, 2021 3:25 AM

239637

Yes that's my problem. I'm a fast eater, and I get annoyed when I'm still hungry even after I already finished a meal. Taking my time with food, especially while hungry, can be torture for me lmao.

ReKoil December 12th, 2021 4:35 AM

239638

I'm a slow eater, compared to my parents and siblings at least.
Always the last one to finish lol

Also I can't be bothered to keep track of calories or the like xD

ZeoStar December 12th, 2021 1:33 PM

I eat slower at restaurants, because it's no fun sitting and watching everyone else finish.

Roni December 12th, 2021 9:34 PM

239640

When I'm with friends, I definitely eat slower because I wanna chat with them and stuff. But being alone at home? (which is 99% of the time atm) That's where the problems start lol.

Sheep December 12th, 2021 10:40 PM

239641

Yeah I eat slower when I'm out with people usually. Normally I manage to finish my food in 10-15 min, which is probably fast, but still slower than some others including husband lmao.

That's why I eat around 800g of vegetables everyday :)

Actually it's not that annoying. It's yet another habit to get ^^

When I'm alone is when I can take one hour to eat my meal XD
Generally, when I'm alone, I'm doing something else while eating, be it playing videogames, posting on the forum, watching somehting on Youtube, working on my game...

I like doing stuff while eating at home too, but it sucks when the rice starts to dry and get hard, or when the food starts getting cold/soggy from being left on the table for a considerable amount of time. Also, having to wipe my hands to rid of the food gunk on my hands before typing gets annoying after a while lol.

Chocolate doesn't count though right? RIGHT?

ReKoil is right!

You know what's a crime against humanity? These hollow chocolate bodies. Like those Santa shaped ones that pop up during Christmas. They are so inconveniently shaped that you very much need to smash them just so you can eat them! D:

Duck December 17th, 2021 12:43 PM

Cost cutting measures, down to the shape. Most of them are the same shape as Easter Bunnies so they can reuse the mold.

StCooler December 17th, 2021 10:01 PM

239 659

I never noticed they had the same shape! :O
As much as I love chocolate, I generally don't buy these hollow chocolate bodies, because the chocolate in them is "meh".

ReKoil December 18th, 2021 11:19 AM

With easter I just buy chocolate eggs.
With christmas I usually do buy Santa's, but not the hollow body ones. Instead I'll get the smaller one that are either solid chocolate or have a filling.
