I read that a long time ago, but only lately has it sunk in. I've gotten more serious about getting my body mass in a healthier place.
What does it mean? Think of it like this. You have a daily 'calorie budget' if you are on a weight loss journey. Today, you have decided the one thing you want above all else is an ice cream sundae. Now you face a choice. Will that sundae come from an ice cream shop where they make their own ice cream, or from McDonalds who sells ice cream that refuses to melt... or even go bad? Same 1000 calories either way, but one is worth eating and one isn't.
Well, that's what this grilled cheese from a local place is. It's the McDonalds sundae of grilled cheese sandwiches. A handful of mystery shredded cheese-like substance between two slices of boring bread, toasted on a sandwich press till the thing beeped. Tasteless, even pointless. Not worth the chewing unless one regards it as fuel more than food. Without hunger, why eat the thing?
I'm coming to think of hunger as a sauce that makes food worth eating. Now I'm looking for that tasty 'Hunger-Sauce' on everything since I've gotten used to the flavor. If I'm not hungry, the food just doesn't taste good, or as good. Why waste the calories?
As a result, I'm at possible my lowest weight in 10 years or more. The years goal is in sight, and my ultimate weight goal is within my grasp.
