Ever notice how âfullâ sneaks up on you after the meal is over? Thatâs because your stomach and brain donât sync instantlyâthereâs about a 20-minute delay before satiety signals fully register.
⨠Why stopping before you feel full works:
- Better digestion: Less strain on your gut means smoother energy, not food comas.
- Weight management: You naturally reduce calorie intake without counting every bite.
- Energy boost: Instead of crashing, you stay alert and productive.
- Mindful eating: You learn to listen to your bodyâs cues, not just your plate.
Think of it as leaving the party while the musicâs still goodâyou walk away energized, not exhausted.
đ§ The habit science: Research shows it takes about 21 days to form a new habit. Thatâs three weeks of practice before your brain rewires and âstopping earlyâ becomes second nature.
