Why am I not as full?!


Question: Why am I not as full!?
Okay, so why is it that I can eat a HUGE mountainous vegan salad (like the WHOLE plate full and about 3 inches tall) and not feel stuffed, but eat a petite fillet mignon and about a cup of mashed potatoes and feel like I'm gonna bust my gut!Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
The salad is very light in calories and fat and won't fill your stomach as much as other things!. The other food you ate was much more calorie-dense so it made you full!. It's like if you drank a cup of milk, rather then water, you would feel fuller after the cup of milk!. :)Www@FoodAQ@Com

Salad doesn't contain much fiber!. Salad is a light and healthy food!. A carbohydrate rich food like potatoes contains more fiber, and so does a petite fillet Mignon!. They are more prone to make you feel more full!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

The fillet mignon and mashed potatoes are way more calorically dense than the vegan salad, and have a lot more fat which makes you feel fuller!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It really depends on ur digestions , the time you eat , wat you eat before eating that!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Starches like potatoes expand in your belly!. Consider how much water you had to drink as well!. Lots of liquids can make you feel full!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Proteins in the fillet mignon makes u feel full faster!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

protein takes a lot longer to digest, it stays w/ you longer!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
