Hunger is a normal part of fat loss, but not all hunger comes from a true physiological need for more energy. In this episode, I break down the difference between physiological hunger and what I call self-inflicted hunger.
I cover what can increase physiological hunger, including an energy deficit, getting leaner, higher activity, and being further from your highest body fat level. I also go over the habits that can make hunger worse, such as low-protein meals, calorie-dense foods, poor sleep, stress, poor meal timing, and low food volume.
The goal is to reduce the hunger that can be avoided so you can better manage your calorie intake and stay on track.
If you want to better understand your hunger and learn how to manage it, this episode is for you.
