My friend just told me this:

Would you eat an apple? If not, drink some water or tea and it will pass. If so, have another 150 cals or so.

    I was thinking the same thing, I don't eat apples. Unless they are in a pie, of course, lol

    Haha, ok change it to a piece of fruit you like then. The point is, if you aren't hungry enough for a pear/banana/orange, you aren't hungry.

    That's a really bad question to ask myself. I love apples like mad and would probably eat an apple even if I was stuffed to the gills full. lol

    Its funny I use this with my kids all the time...you know the old bedtime delay tactic "Im hungry" so I offer them and apple or banana. I should be using this on myself! Thanks for posting.

    Think you're hungry? Come to my house and clean my six litter boxes. If you're still hungry, you must be REALLY hungry!

    lol you guys are funny, my husband tells me this everytime I say I feel hungry, he will say, drink a huge glass of water that will take the hunger away, sometimes I listen sometimes I don't. My thing is grapefruit, I love grapefruit, but I only eat the pulp, so I have to decide if the 10 minutes prep. time (it takes me that long to dig out only the pulp) is worth the 1 and a half minute eating time, and usually it is not lol.
