   When I was 17 and running cross-country, I remember the physical sensation of being both so full it was physically painful and simultaneously still hungry. I’d just have to wait for digestion to make enough room to eat more. On a regular basis I would cook and eat a full pound of pasta…as an •after dinner snack•.

   Hard to believe that person was me.

     @inthehands @sysadmin1138 @ian ditto. I don't miss the running of cross country, but I sure do miss the metabolism!

     Ha, for me it’s the opposite! I do miss the pleasure of being in shape enough to really •enjoy• running. And yeah, I suppose I do miss being able to eat as much of whatever garbage I wanted — but I enjoy even more now having “enough” being a feeling I can experience with every meal. What a privilege that is.
