Recognizing Emerging Emerging Hunger

One of the most common reasons why diets always fail is that we eat not just because of hunger.

Many of us rely on food to reduce stress or face unpleasant emotions, such as sadness, loneliness, or boredom.

Instead of getting better, often after eating we actually feel more chaotic because of the guilt most eat.

Eating desire is not triggered because the empty stomach is also called emotional eating.

We use food to make feelings comfortable, eat to satisfy emotional needs, not physical.

Emotional hunger certainly can not be fulfilled by food. Makn may make us feel better at the moment, but the feelings that trigger the desire to eat remain.

There are several things that can differentiate emotional hunger and physical hunger.

Comes suddenly
Emotional hunger suddenly comes and makes us want to eat right then, while physical hunger gradually.
Want specific food
When we are physically hungry, all the food sounds good, including healthy ones. But when we are emotionally hungry, we want sweet food or junk food.
Eat involuntarily
Before we realize, it turns out that a packet of chips is gone without us feeling like enjoying it.
Not satisfactory
We will still feel less and continue to eat until we feel uncomfortable. Conversely, physical hunger will make us feel satisfied when the stomach is full.
Ends with regret
When we eat because of hunger, we will not feel brsalah or embarrassed because we do give what the body needs.
