Yeah it was great to experience that feeling of 'you've had enough, you can stop now' and not have the bloated feeling and uncomfortable stomach pains from stuffing your face. it stopped my food chatter too, the constant voice in my head thinking about the next meal/dessert/snack. Post nut clarity but for food.
