Are you eating this next bite because you truly want it, or

By leaving food on your plate, you are expressing your own independence, your own ability to stop eating when you choose to.

True. But if it's a leftover veggie, I'm eatin' it. :laugh:

Normally I eat it because I don't like wasting food. I hate leaving any food on my plate...I was taught when I was a kid to never leave anything on your plate. Unfortunately that's a habit of mine that I need to work on. Instead of leaving something on my plate, I try to just order a reasonable portion on food and eat that instead of ordering more food than I know I need and eating all of it.

Yea, and that's where my problem begins. There for awhile I knew how to say no more. But I am over eating and I haven't gained any weigth but I am still eating unhealthy foods and I am goin over my 1970 calorie limit and I am not eating enough protein and have once again started over doin the carbs. Grrr!!!
