I have a possibly inherited (undiagnosed) issue where that can happen (eat a small amount and immediately feel full). it seems to be caused by something getting "stuck" around my stomach area. if I ignore it and eat anyway I'll swell up like a balloon for the next 6+ hours. I've recently discovered I can push into my abdomen just under my diaphragm and it will free whatever it is that's stuck. (I can hear/feel something squishy get released, and I instantly feel better.)

my mom seems to have the same thing and she says it's a gastric hernia, but I don't know for sure what it is.

I would think even with a slowing metabolism, one should still be able to eat at least two slices of pizza (assuming you were hungry), but who knows.
