Concetto di sazietà
To be full is to eat to the point of satisfaction, to be full of food. If you say I am full, you are saying that you do not want anymore to eat. If you are too full, it means you have either eaten all you can or have overeaten, as in you are too full for dessert.
Ex: I am way too full to even think about dinner this evening after such a late lunch. Let's plan on having a simple salad around 7:30.
Ex: The chef's lobster bisque was so rich and delicious, I was full before the main course came. It is rare to find a soup that addictive.

Ex: Please don't fill up on junk food so that you will not want to eat dinner tonight. I made sure to include plenty of vegetables so it would be healthy.
