  • Quote: I had a similar experience a few weeks ago. My husband took me out to a bakery for donuts for my birthday. For breakfast. I was totally in the mood for donuts and got a custard filled donut and a plain glazed one with a glass of milk. I ate just until I felt satisfied which was most of my custard filled one and half of the glazed. I drank half the milk and felt good and satisfied. I wasn't hungry and didn't even need to eat again until we had a late lunch. I know that if I told myself that I would be hungry again right away because of all the carbs that I would have been. I did make sure to drink milk for protein to balance the donut but I didn't get insane carb craving hunger. I think your mind is a really important part of your eating experience.



    I have read Thinside out too. (the cupcake and skinny jeans book) I really liked it but felt disappointed that she didn't address a lot of emotional hunger aspects. That is supposed to come out in her next book which I can't wait for.
    Well said "I thinks your mind is an important part of your eating experience". So true!
