It means you are doing good.

DEFINATELY can see where you're coming from!! I used to be able to put down SOOO much food!!! Now I only eat moderately small portions and am full and satisfied with that. It's amazing how much we can stretch out stomachs!

Your stomach used to be the size that it could store all the food that you used to eat, and now that you don't eat as much, it shrunk down to a size that can fit all the food that you consume now...its like a balloon, constantly put air into it, and when you put less air in it, it's not as big...the same thing happened to me, and now, i can't even eat a black bean burger and a baked potato in one sitting

Complex carbs take longer to digest than simple carbs. Simple carbs are usually found in processed foods and stuff.
Complex Carbs are like whole grain/fruits/vegetables. They usually high in fiber, which keeps you feeling fuller longer.

thanks for the info ... this definately means a carb/calorie isnt always a carb/calorie in that im sure if one is to intake 2400cals perday it would be healty to do so by eating 2400cals worth of junk food vs healty food
