Hunger back and stomach capacity high?

Exactly this for me. I was at first afraid because I could drink easily. Now I'm on solid foods, I have exactly a 1 oz capacity.

Everyone is different, and for me it absolutely controls my physical hunger. I literally have no physical hunger sensations. Head hunger is a different thing though. I feel hungry looking at a menu, seeing a commercial, smelling food etc.. But without those triggers, no hunger. I am fortunate that I have no kids and live alone, so I can eliminate most of these. It would certainly be harder if people were eating around me.

My first two weeks I couldn't distinguish between head hunger and physical hunger. As time went on I realized, I'm not hungry for just anything, I'm only hungry for pizza, which I just saw a commercial for. Or a burger sounds good, oh, my neighbor is BBQing, that's why.

Additionally even when I am in a situation like at a restaurant, the lack of physical hunger makes it easier to make good choices (soup vs mac & cheese), And when there are no good choices or good choices are impractical (only chicken dish is a 1/2 chicken for example), then it is good to know that there is only so much damage I can do when my stomach capacity is 1 oz.

Thanks. Thanks for sharing.
