Natural Instincts:
Hunger is a natural instinct. It is our body telling us that we are hungry and that we need to eat. Unfortunately the food companies are very clever and have learned to use advertising to their advantage and they do their best to convince us that what they want to sell us is full of wholesome nutritious goodness. Obviously this is often far from the truth.
Our body does not care that food is plentiful in the world where we live. It acts the same as if we were living in the wild and we would have to hunt or go and gather wild berries. remember it is not wise to go against the instinct that is designed to protect us from starving to death.
You do not have to be hungry in order to starve. On the contrary, when you eat regular healthy meals you will find it easier to stick to your healthy eating plan. This will make it easier to reach your goal and stick with it. Keeping your hunger in check will help you to stop feeling frustrated and miserable.
