    I’m a big proponent of eat when you think you should eat

    That's a terrible idea, though. Eating when you think you should eat is how you get an entire country (something like 70+%) overweight. Americans eat when they think they should eat and almost every single one of the fuckers eats way too much.

      I love you just ignoring how that's cause americans are sold an empty diet everywhere they go, so they are constantly hungry and keep getting calories without enough vitamins. You shouldn't ignore your hunger, its a question of what food is available.

        Your stomach isn't that smart, it's not telling you you're hungry because it needs more vitamin D, it's telling you you're hungry because it's used to you stuffing your face at this time of day.

        You shouldn’t ignore your hunger

        When your hunger is wrong and telling you to overeat, yes you absolutely should.
