Discover What is Keeping Your Appetite Switch in the On Position
Your first challenge as you begin mapping your brain chemicals is to get better
at discriminating between hunger and appetite. Hunger is driven by a different
process than appetite. Hunger is experienced physically, from sensations in
the stomach and from the effects of low blood sugzr. Appetite affects us
through thoughts, impulses, and sometimes quite complex behaviors,
all designed to get particular foods.
If you already have the group textbook, How to Make Almost Any Diet Work, read
pages 13 to 16 , then check out the difference between hunger signals
and appetite signals,
pages 17-20. (Don't use any of the charts in the book. They are much more
