Overeating problem to the point of feeling sick

I have a problem over eating I just really enjoy it and to be honest I never know when I'm satisfied... I work in a restaurant where we served buffet today we got the left overs!! I filled my plate (couldn't finish it all) but filled it with almost a little bit of everything. Last weekend I didn't have a good experience with food cause I felt extremely sick and bloated and told myself I'd never do that again... this weekend was better I thought.... when I finished I knew I had eaten quite a bit but I didn't feel over full compared to the last time, gave it some time then it finally got me. Sadly I had to take a gravol for the nauseousness to go away... sorry if I'm all over the place with how I'm wording this. Hope it makes sense.

Ps I'm already a tiny person 5'2 and a half weigh between 107-111 lately I've been weighing 111 sadly

    A combination of limitless portions and a love of food.

    I suggest drinking lots of water on the job, and keep minty gum on hand.

    Make up a SMALL plate at least half of veggies and eat very slowly.

    I use chopsticks sometimes to slow myself down.

    Eating slowly and mindfully will help you double or triple the pleasure of the meal at a fraction of the calories. You are also giving your stomach enough time to signal fullness.

    Solid advice!
