And I can very much relate to not being able to stop once I start eating something. I find this especially hard with processed/refined carbs, which I believe play some tricks on our hunger related hormones so our body can't detect when we've had enough food. If I stick to mostly more protein/fat and unprocessed carbs I find it much easier to control how much I eat.
It's interesting to hear your success with an extended fast. I haven't ventured beyond the 16:8 but am intrigued to experiment with something a bit longer this year.
