TOP TIPS FOR HUNGER
1. Only eat if you are really hungry. Many times we eat because we are bored. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO EAT !!!! Forget what anyone has told you - if you can pinch an inch at your belly - you can go without a meal or two .
2. Trust your appetite - if you take a glass of water are you still hungry ?
3. The broccoli hunger test - would you eat some broccoli ? If not then you are NOT hungry
4. You should be able to go 5 hours without food- this means you are burning fat for fuel. If you are a carbohydrate eater and burner you get hungry quicker. We need to help you flick the switch remember - from carb or sugar burner to FAT BURNER. This may take some time so bear with it.
5. Eat until you are SATISFIED or NO LONGER HUNGRY - NOT completely full. This will take practice but begin by slowing the rate at which you eat. Put your knife and fork down between mouthfuls .
6. It takes 20 minutes for your stomach to send “ full “ signals to your brain. If you eat until you are FULL then you are always stretching your stomach so it takes longer for you to feel full and you keep eating more and more.. vicious cycle
