What’s the difference between fullness and satisfaction? And how can that difference help you lose weight?
To integrate this cue into your life, focus on eating to the point of satisfaction rather than fullness.
Your body will naturally signal when it’s hungry, satisfied, or full. You just have to listen.
Satisfaction is different than fullness. Satisfaction is the feeling of having just enough. Fullness is having had a bit too much – or way too much.
Check-in with yourself during your meal and ask, “Am I satisfied?” If so, there’s no need to eat more.
Remember that it takes 15-20 minutes after becoming satisfied for your body to send that signal to your brain.
