Default A couple of "Filling Foods" questions

teach it... much more supportive of eaither plan but the emphasis when
talking to a point counter is quality of food and examining how you feel

portions of the foods and how you feel after eating them, on old core/flex,
it was more about how much you could eat or what you could get for the
points, and on core all about satisfaction levels, only a nod to portions....
at least this is what i experienced anyway, so maybe its a different way of
teaching the same thing... i gravitate towards the foods on that list so the
fact that i have no satisfied button is not the fault of ww. *I wish i did
because it would be lots easier to just know the portions eat and go on, Lee"


I understand what you mean about not having a "satisfied" button.

I think very obese people like me eat for lots of other reasons in
addition to being hungry.

By the way, I had a banana just before - my first high glycemic food
in 4 weeks - and it is sort of amazing how I can feel it actually
making me hungry for something else!

I really have to learn what my trigger foods are. Low carb foods are
not triggers. But obviously some higher carb foods are.

Bananas are definitely not "simply filing".
