Do you eat until you are full or until you are satisfied?

For me it depends on how hungry I am. If I am not hungry I eat until I am satisfied but if I'm hungry I eat until I am full. If it is a holiday or family reunion, I usually eat more than I need to but it's so much to choose from I end up eating until I am full.

I think I mostly eat until I am satisfied. I hate to walk around beeing completely full.

I try not to eat until I'm full, but I do sometimes. When I'm in a restaurant if I can't eat all the food that they serve me I usually ask for a carry out box so that I can eat the rest later. It's not a good feeling being completely full.

in holidays or reunion i eat slowly, dont want to get full at once lol, i eat small portion of everything there and get back to the best tasting food. ill stop when im half full so there will be room for liquids.

During reunions and holidays I eat the desserts along with the meal so that I can make sure that I have room for it. I drink my liquids last.

It all depends on what it is I am eating. If it's just food, then I eat until I am satisfied, but if it is really good food that I like, or a treat that I don't get very often like something from the Danish restaurant, I eat until I am full!!

i usually cannot eat a large meal at one sitting. I dont know why, but i just cannot. i tend to eat a few small meals during the day such as fruit or the like. i try to make them healthy, but its not always possible.

For me it depends on the occasion. If I am out on New Years eve at a special dinner, than I eat until I am full. Also, if I am invited to a BBQ I pig out and eat until my stomach is full. Most of the year, I just eat until I am satisfied
