Absolutely wrong. Over eating is an issue of conditioning. Yes different foods digest at a different rate, but Americans eat like they’re strength training their stomachs, and always seem to have room for dessert.

The body doesn’t negate over eating when it’s a lifestyle.

Yes, over-eating burgers, fries, sugary drinks etc - you are going to have some serious health issues.

What I am saying is that portion size is not a big issue if you eat very healthy, low carb food. You could eat a mountain of steamed broccoli, mushrooms, carrots, cabbage every day and you wouldn't gain weight. You'd just need the to visit the loo a lot.
