Preventative Eating

From an article on Hunger from About.com

Preventive Eating

Eating even though you aren’t hungry to prevent feeling hungry later at an inconvenient time is called preventive eating. But hunger cannot be satisfied before it occurs. Think of it like this. If you’re comfortable in a room, you wouldn’t put a heavy coat on now to prevent getting cold in an hour because you’d feel hot and uncomfortable in the meantime. Instead, you’d have a coat with you and put it on when you feel cold; then the coat will do what it is supposed to do—make you warm and keep you comfortable. Hunger works the same way. If you eat now because you’re afraid of being hungry in an hour, you’ll feel full and uncomfortable in the meantime. If you wait to eat until you’re hungry, you’ll feel comfortable and content.
