Adding to what the others said it is also about the time you spend chewing something, also feeling full usually only starts about 20 to 30 minutes after eating regardless whether one ate a medium amount or a lot. So when wanting to reduce the caloric intake it might be useful to eat one plate of something and before getting seconds because you are still “hungry” to wait a couple minutes. Most of the time then you are full. Or eating slowly so you get to the half hour check point with your first portion
