"Therefore, the work of detecting and responding to physical hunger or fullness must include tuning in to our unmet needs on an emotional and spiritual level and tending to these needs with strong boundaries and mutually respectful "no's" to others and "yes's" to ourselves. When we are able to avoid depletion by saying "no" in life, it becomes much easier to say: "No thank you, I am satisfied with a 'just right' feeling of fullness.""
