Hunger is the most overused word I hear in my profession. I am not sure if the general public is even aware of what hunger really is. Most people spend most of their time trying, subconsciously of course, to elude hunger at all cost.
For most Americans, their eating pattern goes something like this:
Hunger can be eluded in a healthy manner. This manner, if desired, can allow for weight control or loss without hunger. Small meals of high fiber foods coupled with healthy protein choices will keep you satisfied and will help you take control of your fear of hunger. We all fear hunger. I tell my patients to prepare for famine because when we get in a spot where there are not healthy foods to eat, things go south quick. If whole grain pretzels and a mozzarella cheese stick are not available then a family size bag of chips will keep hunger at bay. “I’m sorry but this was all they had” should be on my stationary since I have heard it so often.
Let me be honest with you. Hunger should not be feared. It should be controlled. We all get a little unsettled if we do get hungry. I am sure we have all experienced it once or twice in our lives. Let’s be real. Here is my advice. This comes from a woman who at one time could have been crowned the Queen of Hunger Avoidance. Make good choices for meals, eat frequently, and snack. Snacking is okay. Enjoy your food. Let it nourish you. Reward yourself with a manicure, not a candy bar. Yes, you do deserve to treat yourself with a brownie but you also deserve to be healthy. In the long run healthy will reap the most benefit to you as you age. You may be surprised at how well you manage the rest of your life once you manage your appetite. The hunger monster will not get you. I promise.
