Admittedly most of us have forgotten what it truly feels like to be hungry. The abundance of food has created an environment which has caused most of us to eat so often we simply don’t allow enough time to pass to feel the real signs of true hunger.
This is a big problem in the fight against obesity. With many joining the overweight number of society the best thing we can do to leave the club is to understand when we really need to eat. The best way to do this is to know how to tell if what you’re feeling is really hunger or some other stomach pain.
The Why Am I Always Hungry Discussion
DerdriuMarriner, SO true, I think it is only when we have things in our lives that we truly love and enjoy and take our attention captivating us that we forget about food, It is my feeling that hunger or false hunger is a symptom of boredom, in most cases.
Veronica, Interesting and your progress is impressive, good on you!
Personally, I only eat when I am hungry. I fast intermittently until I become ravenous, you know how eating requires time and attention, I have little of both when it comes to food. I drink fatty coffee to make body and mind happy till I am starving and must stop, then I have a green shake, nuts and eat a salad with some form of protein for dinner. I am a terrible eater. Hunger is a regular with me. I don't think I could ever eliminate hunger, that would mean I would have to actually eat on a schedule. LOL you have great organizational skills
My new eating plan dictates that I must not ever be "hungry". Hunger makes us eat foods which are unsuitable in order to get a " quick fix " and so on the rare occasions I eat between meals I eat protein or fruit and veg sticks. NO fat or sugar.
katiem2, Thank you for the descriptions, particularly about mistaken and real pains, and for the product line, particularly about acid reflux.
Drinking and eating are such social activities that it's difficult to know when one has room that can be filled -- although probably shouldn't unless in good health and on a good diet and exercise plan -- as opposed to room that shouldn't be filled, since people drink and eat so fast that the stomach fills up before the drinker/eater knows it.
Betty, I know all to well what you're talking about I too follow the 15/6 rule, it is a lot to eat for me but I do try to remember to eat as much through the week and I too relax over the weekend eating what ever I do or do not want. It is a plan that works brilliantly indeed. :)K
I'm someone who eats by the 15/6 rule all through the week. Anytime I eat anything high in scale during the weekend it makes me feel sick. It's amazing how much you note a difference in such changes when you practice a healthy eating plan the majority of the time..
2uesday, Good plan :)
vri, Well said :)
Tiggered, Thanks for the vote of confidence. :)K
