[QUOTE="Dillinger, post: 504360, member: 13582"] If 'evidence' directly contradicts what you can ascertain from your own experience then that evidence needs to be of an extraordinary high qualitative nature for one to accept it. You claim to be rigidly attached to logic and process so you must by definition agree with that surely? To say then that observations on the 'Delboeuf illusion' means that people overeat when they have large plates because they underestimate the amount of food in front of them seems to be a long way from 'extraordinary evidence' especially when we know ourselves how hunger operates. It is also directly linking obesity to gluttony and that is the point I'm disputing; overeating obviously happens but why does it happen? You suggest gluttony compounded by the 'Delboeuf illusion', I say leptin imbalances. Regards Dillinger [/QUOTE]
