Counterregulatory eating
Counterregulatory eating is the psychological tendency for a person to eat more after having recently eaten.[1] It is a behavior opposite to regulatory eating, which is the normal pattern of eating less if one has already eaten.[1] It is more common among dieters, for whom a large "pre-load" (the food eaten first) is presumed to sabotage motivation for restricted eating.[2]
It was coined the "what-the-hell" effect by dieting researcher
