The point about "full fat", (aka saturated fat), is that once your appetite-control system is working again your gut will inform your brain that you have had all the food you need for the moment and
you will not want to eat any more, including any more fat. This manifests as the "couldn't eat another mouthful" feeling at the end of every meal. In relation to butter vs margarine, butter is better for you because part of the polyunsaturated fat molecule is susceptible to oxidation to trans fat which is very bad for you. And the same principle (above) applies. It tastes better too :-)
