I realize this sounds like total common sense, but I can't tell you how often this story would have turned out differently.
I got pizza tonight. I was running late for lunch and didn't get to eat. (I had to proctor a standardized test for our graduating seniors today). So I was starving by the time I got it home. And I loaded my plate up. But after eating a couple of pieces, I realized I really wasn't hungry for the piece still on my plate.
So I put it back. I didn't force myself to eat it. I didn't give in to the pressure to clean my plate. I stopped, because I wasn't hungry anymore.
Apparently, 40 does come with new-found wisdom. :)
Sadly, it also seems to come with a decreased metabolism. :(
