- Slight fading of focus
- A drop in energy or drive
- Thinking about food without urgency
What Fullness Feels Like Now
- A soft pressure in the upper stomach
- Warm, calm satisfaction
- No interest in more bites
How to Stay Fuelled Without Overeating
- Eat protein first at each meal
- Add slow carbs for steady energy
- Use small plates to avoid portion drift
- Stop eating as soon as food becomes “neutral” or “boring”
