Visuddhimagga II-45

Ayaṃpanānisaṃso, anatirittabhojanāpattiyā dūrabhāvo, odarikattābhāvo, nirāmisasannidhitā, puna pariyesanāya abhāvo, appicchatādīnaṃ anulomavuttitāti.

（功德）次为功德：不犯残余食之过，无贪食满腹之病，不贮[zhù]食物，不再求，随顺少欲等的生活。

Ñ(II,45): The benefits are these. One is far from committing an offence concerned with extra food; there is no overloading of the stomach; there is no keeping food back; there is no renewed search [for food]; he lives in conformity with [the principles of ] fewness of wishes, and so on.

Han: Here also, Mahāsī Sayādaw put the numbers.
