sated
Gorged beyond hunger
Sated means fully satisfied, especially regarding appetite or desire.
Someone who has eaten enough is sated; so is someone whose curiosity or lust has been thoroughly gratified.
The word suggests satisfaction to the point of having no remaining want: We left the feast sated and sleepy.
Unlike satiated, which can imply excess, sated tends toward simple contentment.
