Oh how I hate that last little bite...

The one that stares at you from the plate and says, "Please don't leave me alone! I am so small, I will fit! I swear I won't cause you any trouble." Besides, wouldn't it be wasteful to throw it out!?! It's just one bite!! :sneaky:

I soooooooo know what you mean!!! LOL Sometimes I have to consciously tell myself "this is the bite that will make you throw up, don't be stupid!"

This happens when I am eating something that tastes especially delicious and I want more but know I am already full. Oh the torture!

Good to know I am not alone. LOL :sneaky:

That is so true. I'm glad I'm no the only one hearing tiny voices :sneaky:

This always happens to me! I'm starting to be able to give the last bite to my fiance or just leave it, but I do also hate that last bite!

I do this too. I figure I have only served up a small portion that one more bite won't hurt.........................

I am getting better at leaving food on my plate though. Depends what it is and sometimes when. I am more inclined to leave some of my dinner but really like to eat all my Breakfast if I can!

And you know that, that one little bite is the one that makes you throw up too....

I'm pretty good at leaving a large amount on my plate, like the other half of a sandwich, but when it is just one or two bites, I can't leave them alone!! It is pitiful :thumbup: Then 10 minutes later I'm rushing to the bathroom and it is all wasted anyway!! That is what I need to keep in mind: I can throw it AWAY now, or throw it UP in ten minutes!! :thumbup:

I'm sick of having to throw out half eaten oranges :-(

Oh How I know this feeling and this may sound weird but I hate that I don't throw up after the last bite nor 10 minutes later. I rather throw it up than keep it in and making me consume more calories. :thumbup:

If I understand what you're saying correctly, I know how you feel. But I'm trying to get away from that thinking, because I don't want to get into any kind of eating disorder type mindset. I'm trying to get over compulsive overeating disorder, so I don't want to go to the other side.

Since my last fill, I've made very good friends with little plastic baggies! I save everything for the next day's meals!

Yesterday's orange sounds pretty darn good! :thumbup:

I just compost mine.

I'm so wasteful - Having half eaten fruit in the fridge is a pet peeve of my mum's. Most of the time I won't eat it so it just sits there to rott or go dry.

I tried cling wrap - maybe it'll work better with those bags. I'll see if I eat it and if my mum yells at me :thumbup:

Cheers.

OMG!! Im the same way. I would just look at the last bite and even though I new the outcome :thumbup: I would still eat it. Now I just tell myself...Self, you can throw it away now or throw it up in a few minuits. :thumbup:

It really is a big milestone when we have the willpower to set the fork down with that last lonely little bite starting at us. So congratulate yourselves!
