that hunger scale is so awesome in teaching you inner guidance instead of "rules", love it!

^^ This.

 

I've been thinking about your hunger scale since you first mentioned it, I'm generally fairly mindful about that sort of thing and am not bad at only eating when I'm hungry, but thinking about your scale has helped me stop even though there's still some food in my container, and to not have a snack before bed (which is actually a big one for me, I'm good at justifying a few crackers with peanut butter).

 

Oh absolutely. It's actually crazy how much you learn. Like I noticed for me there are two things. Amount of hunger, as in amount of food, and urgency of hunger. I tend to think urgency means larger amount. This is not true. Sometimes, I'm super hungry, but satisfied relatively quickly too! Other times the hunger was there but not screaming at me, but I did have to eat quite a lot to get it back to something good again! Weird!

That's a good way of putting it, and gives me something else to think about too. I tend to be either not hungry or starving, with very little 'enh, I could eat' transition in between, but it definitely doesn't always take the same amount to get me back to not hungry every time.
