============================================================ Many people associate weight loss with being hungry allrepparttar time. They're afraid to start a weight loss plan because they want to avoidrepparttar 115604 frustrations of hunger.

And yes, a lot of times for many people it's better to be overweight than to starve. I'm no exception. I really like to eat, so there's no way I would be constantly hungry forrepparttar 115605 sake being thin. What kind of life is it if you're always feeling hungry?

Our natural instinct tells us to eat when we are hungry. Hunger is a signal tellingrepparttar 115606 body that it needs to eat. It is also a signal torepparttar 115607 body that it is in danger, that it needs food now. Our self-preservation instinct makes us scarf down everything in sight in response to feelings of starvation.

Our body doesn't care that we live inrepparttar 115608 modern world where food is plentiful. It actsrepparttar 115609 same as it would if we were living in a wild, having to hunt for our food. And it is not wise to go againstrepparttar 115610 instinct that is designed to protect us from starvation death.

So, get ready for a surprise: you do not have to be hungry in order to lose weight. Onrepparttar 115611 contrary, eating regular meals and keeping yourself full is what will actually help you stick to your healthy eating plan and reach your goals. Keeping your hunger in check will help you avoid overeating. It will also prevent you from feeling miserable, frustrated and out of control.

Try eating 5-6 small frequent meals as opposed to three large ones. If you wait too long for a meal, byrepparttar 115612 timerepparttar 115613 food comes, you will be starving and will not be able to control yourself. Eating smaller meals more often helps keep you full, and lets you be in control.
