For me its like I will eat something healthy like organic and I'm fine if ist little but if i eat too little I need to eat some thing high I'm calories or else I feel sick and unsatisfied. But even if i do eat a lot its never over 2000

@ChristinaWolfle That makes perfect sense...feeling 'satisfied' is such a huge part of being able to stop eating..and the satisfaction is only part physical (i.e. having enough food) a huge and very valid piece of satisfaction is psychological...so if you wanted something heavy and ate a light organic healthy salad..it would be really tough to stop eating!

[ChristinaWolfle]

@josielenore yeah I mean if I eat something heavy when I'm already satisfied I don't feel good or if I eat something light when I need calories then I would end up eating more and more. I don't think is psychological because your body tells you what you need. If you don't listen you would get fat..

[josielenore]

@ChristinaWolfle I don't mean psychological as in 'its all in your head' I mean psychological in that it is not gastrointestinal..but rather that part of satisfaction comes from the ventral hypothalamus in our brain to trigger satisfaction....I think we are saying the same thing...I completely agree that we need to listen to our bodies..and that the brain and the stomach both play a role in feeling full. Ok now I feel like I'm totally belaboring the point :)

You should so write a book about all this! I'm literally sitting here taking notes and I would absolutely LOVE to get more great info! Especially the way you present it! You're so positive and uplifting, and I've never come across so many insightful ideas that make so much sense! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! =D

I agree with everything, i have many friends who are naturally thin...we will go out and get some unhealthy food and they will have a few bites and say.. im full i dont want anymore. I dont have that and I could eat and eat regardless if im hungry..if it tastes good i dont listen. I need to learn how to do that

@BrownnnEyes it's not like you have an option. It's too late when you realize you have an addiction to food and then you have to work the problem by understanding it.It's just like drug addicts, alcoholics, etc.

i think life is too short to obsess over things like this

[OreBaroness]

I don't want to sound rude but.... too many words. There are some good pieces of information in this video but it's hard to make them out because of all the blabbering. You might want to learn to be more laconic, it would only benefit the perception of what you are saying.

[VanessaCArthur]

Excellent video... smart observations....PS I love you!!

[coconutwatermelon]

Wow, your videos are great and insightful.. You should definitely write a book... I'm really into nutrition and the powers of organic food. I'd research and see people say eat as much of this or that as you want, I was excited to see this, I was like perfect I can eat 30 bananas and 5 watermelons. This does not solve the real problem and is no way to live. Great great advice.

I find myself laughing cause it's like youre describing me! Ahh I can't get over how happy I am I found your videos, you so need to write a book or something! You're also amazingly beautiful, you don't need to lose any weight :-) x

Hey! Have you considered intellectus 424 diet (google it)? Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my mate lost lots of weight with it.

[AngeIived]

Im one of those naturally thin people, to me its kind of been a problem since I want to gain weight. I guess my way of life and eating wont allow that :)

I kind of eat when I want to, I may be hungry, but I can wait until I want to eat. When I feel the craving if you know what I mean. Then I start making dinner etc.

Perhaps that pattern plays a part in my physique.
