Valuable Lesson: Fuller is not always better!

Today has been very enlightening for me!  I have always believed that my weight issue wasn't my fault, that it had to be a hormone disorder or something!  I didn't think that I ate too much or that I wasn't active enough!  Well, sorry to say that I was wrong!  I am surviving just fine on the 1200 to 1600 calories I have been eating lately even though I wasn't sure I could.  I did a little experiment today and ate just a little more Grilled Pork Loin that I should have.  I just wanted to monitor the difference I would feel between eating (kind of) like I used to, and eating how I do now  ... and wow is there ever a difference!!! I felt sick to my stomach instantly.  I knew I had over eaten and I it didn't feel good to me.  I have no idea how I used to eat that much or why??? I know that my stomach as done some shrinking lately and that helps me feel fuller faster, but I was surprised by how much!  Over eating was not enjoyable to me and stuffing my face brought me nothing but discomfort!  What a valuable lesson to learn!!!
