Hunger Question

LilouLilou
in Being Raw

I need some help... I keep hearing about true and false hunger; How do I learn to make the dinstiction between the two? After all these years of abusing my body I don't feel like I can trust it just yet... How do I know if my intense desire to eat is hunger or just appetite? Thank you :)

    check out david wolfe's sunfood diet system book. It's awesome a gets into that quite a bit.

    I have learned that my stomach growling is more a result of the SAD. It doesn't really do it when I'm raw. Mostly my cravings are from boredm at this point. However, if it's a raw craving, I try to go with it.

    My appetite has changed significantly too. I weighed 250 at my top and was eating tons and tons a day! Now I eat very little and am completely satisfied. It's amazing what your body does when you're getting quality foods and proper nutrition.

    Good luck!

    often times people mistake thirst for hunger so try a little more water a day
