Satiated.

I experienced this for real last night. I have been Keto for 12 days. Finally my brain is sending out the "stop eating now!" signal. It is amazing and took me quite aback. Again, today at lunch I all of the sudden could not imagine taking another bite and quite literally pushed my plate away from me. What a crazy experience to have after years of carb cravings and over eating, and eating what was in front of me just because. I honestly feel like I have never experienced true satiation, just more of a "stuffed" from eating too much feeling. And even then I could probably fit some ice cream in, you know, because it melts around the other foods.

I hear ya! Especially about the ice cream! ... but yes. That feeling that you want no more, but now you can go do something. Not that feeling of bloated misery and "why did I eat so much" and now I really need a nap. Like after Thanksgiving dinner. It's a novelty to me too.

Kind of works differently for me. I don't feel satiated while eating. I stop with the meal that I am eating. Then, after eating, I say stop. I wait and say to myself, "Are you satiated?" I could eat way more sometimes, but I don't.
