A quandry ladies...

So, I have been trying to be really good about listening to my body and eating when, and only when I am hungry and stopping when I feel satisfied. I have the obeying hunger thing in check for now (I made baked apples 2 days ago and haven't had any until tonight because I was never hungry!). My issue is that I feel full immediately after I start to eat. Tonight is a perfect example. I literally had 2 bites of my apples, 2 bites of my bread, three spoonfuls of chili and a few drinks and I feel full. I've taken to eating really slowly so that I don't overeat because this fullness signal is so hard to read. Do you ladies ever feel like this or is my stomach as insane as my head?

That is quite the quandry. Is it such a bad thing to feel full so fast? I still have trouble slowing down to give my body time to feel full. I have not felt full too fast as you are describing - sorry, I guess I'm no help. It is quite perplexing. Maybe it's just a phase your body is going through since it's probably adjusting to your new lifestyle? That's my guess.
