leave a ballast Explanation: Esta es la traducción correcta del término de su pregunta. Pienso que debería haber preguntado directamente por la expresión "que deja como un lastre la comida", ya que era lo que realmente buscaba. En el contexto que planteó, dicha expresión podría traducirse como "that makes the food feels like a ballast". https://definicion.de/lastre/ |

which leaves one with a pleasant feeling of fullness Explanation: One's appetite has been satisfied completely, not only by the food that has been consumed, but also because of the congenial company that share in the meal. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 9 hrs (2022-06-06 14:24:41 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The appetite is completely satiated, so that one feels a sense of comfort, like in the case when one eats what is called "comfort food". -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 9 hrs (2022-06-06 14:28:17 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- "leaves one feeling pleasantly full" |

leave you feeling sated Explanation: I agree with Barbara's explanation, but "with a pleasant feeling of fullness" can expressed in a single word. I would ignore the mention of food, and translate "que deja como un lastre la comida" as "leaves you feeling sated". |
