Which came first?

Two habits to consider when managing weight are avoiding feeling full and being hungry.  When we get to a place where we are full, we have eaten so much that our stomach has expanded and the tissue is feeling pressure.  This level of consumption is clearly beyond our need.  If we do not need it, then it becomes storage.  We will look more at the process of creating storage at a later time.

For now, the question is which came first the buffet or the belly?  Did we create toxic eating environment where food becomes possession, reward, consulation, and pleasure alone?  Or did the size of our collective waist lines grow spontaneously forcing the need for larger portions?  I think that we know.

If we are always creating unhealthy habits and making bad choices, the food choices will continue to change.  If we pay for value (a buffet for little money), then the food and restaruant industries will keep feeding you, us, what we want?  What is it that we want?  Maybe we should be deciding based on what we need?  I need a balance diet.  I need to control my portions. I need to be healthy.  But buffets are really satisfiying...are they really?
