: Gee, that's me at every meal. I tend

: where everyone is fitting in all
: those vegetables because by the
: time I've eaten my protein and
: complex carb, I'm full.

: After reading other posts about BE
: spiking - it seems even more

: artificial sweeteners. I've tried
: that a couple times already and
: haven't been able to handle it,
: although I'm mostly off of out and
: out sugar foods. Any advice?

Ignoring my stomach, yes - I guess the thing that usually stopped me from eating any more is when the waistband on my pants would get so tight I figure it's gonna cut off my circulation. My brothers always just unbuttoned their waistband but I would be too embarrassed to do that.

This body awareness - or lack of it - is an amazing thing!
