C Correct answer
Explanation

The idiom 'eyes are bigger than your stomach' refers to taking more food than you can actually eat, showing greed or lack of self-awareness about your capacity. Option C correctly identifies this as being greedy. The other options incorrectly refer to being far-sighted, ambitious, or having bad intentions, which miss the idiom's specific meaning about overestimating capacity.
