    If it isn't calories you need, it's being wasted by eating it as well. Would you rather throw it in the garbage, or treat your body like garbage? :innocent:

    I weigh and measure my foods at each meal so I don't have this problem. :)

    Gluttony (or, if you like, overconsumption) is not the cure for waste. The cure for waste is to prepare and consume as much as you need, not more.

    It boggles my mind that people who would never think that the cure for, say, plastic waste in the oceans is to use more plastic shopping bags somehow convince themselves that the cure for food waste is to prepare and eat more food than they need or even want.

    I eat for health now. Not according to how someone else thinks I should eat. So no it doesn't bother me to not eat something

    I struggle with this. I loved a lot of these replies! <3

    This is why I try to stress to my husband that our picky little eater (6 yrs) should not be forced to clean her plate. I want her to have a healthy relationship with food.
