Learning To Be Hungry And Under Eating
How many times have you skipped a meal because you’re dieting, time-poor or stressed, only to graze mindlessly or overeat later?
It’s a common trap and can result in all sorts of problems, including weight gain.
Our bodies and brains are designed to work together to tell us when we need to eat and how much. But denying messages like hunger pangs and satiety, or eating when you aren’t hungry, confuses your body and throws out its ability to regulate food intake. This can lead to chronic tiredness, poor health, mood swings and yoyo-ing weight.
