[QUOTE="Member496333, post: 1996561"] It is fascinating but I wouldn’t overthink it. Learn to trust your appetite. As I like to keep saying - eat when you’re hungry and stop when you’re not. If you’re eating the right foods then your appetite is no longer hijacked by carbohydrate dependence, and it will tell you when it needs food, or won’t when it doesn’t. No effort required. I tend to experience this, also. I am fat adapated but my BMI is a rather lean 18.6 which means my body tends to want to hold onto the fat that it does have. The upshot is that it is not shy in telling me when I need to add fuel. Some days I will barely think about food, but others I will have a very hearty appetite. For me, weight training seems to be the hinge point. If I’m lifting weights then I will get the hunger signals sometimes almost the moment that I put them down. Biochemistry rocks :woot: And there I was saying don’t overthink it :shifty: [/QUOTE]
