    That's pretty cool lol.
    well I barely ever go over my daily allowance, I'm usually not hungry. Eating say 2000 calories of lean proteins and fiber are going to fill someone up a lot better than 2000 calories of say twinkies and ho ho's. I guess quality of calories at least for me makes a huge difference if feeling hungry or feeling full. Also drinking a lot of water helps, cause many times when you think you are hungry you are really thirsty.

    funny that at 4'11 and <100 pounds I can eat well over 2000 a day and still WANT more. lol.

    When eating healthy, I eat up to or below my calories because I don't crave or binge on healthy food. I eat just enough to not be hungry anymore and stop, whether or not I've finished my plate. Which is how it should be all the time.

    Now if it were chicken wings or mac and cheese, I would keep eating even though I'm no longer hungry until I'm stuffed.

    With the exception of this week... This was my issue. This week, I've been eating pretty good, but I've also been skimping on my water. And there's the issue... When I'm drinking my water like I'm supposed to... That's when I don't get all of my calories because I'm just not hungry.

    I drink coffee and chew gum.

    If any of those things cause cancer, I'm screwed.
