Hello, Everyone i'm new here. Are cravings controlling your eating habits?

[Annoyed]

i have developed a slight ambivalence toward the freeze dryer. it's so nice to have all sorts of fruit on hand and i usually only eat a few pieces at a time. i really have to watch it, though. if i don't take some out and put the jar away, a few pieces sometimes turns into too many and ... for example... it is quite easy to down 2-3 whole apples (equivalent, minus all the water, but all the calories/ sugar).

I don't get it. You can actually gain weight eating whole fruit? I would be anorexic if all I ate were raspberries.

fruit has a built-in throttle... water. try to eat 3 whole, fresh apples or a whole pineapple, or half a dozen bananas and let me know how that goes. believe me, in one day i could eat all that... as freeze dried. that would easily be 12-1300+ calories ... almost entirely sugar.
