182.6 Bored? With Food?

We just got home from having a wonderful dinner at The Arizona Biltmore, a grand hotel in Phoenix. We were with friends with whom we eat out about once a month, trying all sorts of restaurants that we hear about since we are all relatively new to the area.

Elaine and I were talking about favorite foods and I mentioned that I had noticed that she never eats all the food that is served to her. I was curious as to why this was the case. Was it a way to control her weight, did she just feel full a lot sooner than I did (!), or what was it all about? She laughed and said that she gets bored tasting the same food over and over. She gets bored! I had never ever even thought of not eating something on my plate because I was tired of the flavor. We are talking filet mignon, elegant fish dishes, and superb salads. Bored?

Yes, she is slender and loves food, just not very much of it at one time. I am thinking on this because it is a very novel idea for me to digest . (Sorry about that.) So I am wondering if I can incorporate this way of thinking as I head into maintenance. Bored, hmmm.
