096: Hunger, Fullness, and How to Listen to Your Body Better

Too Much on Her Plate with Dr. Melissa McCreery

Some of the most non-helpful advice for ending overeating is to “eat only when you’re hungry, and stop eating when you’re full.” It’s not helpful because it’s usually delivered with no explanation of how to execute this plan.

In this episode, I’m covering how to get better at eating when you’re hungry and stopping when you’re full by learning how to identify your hunger and fullness and how to listen to your body better.

In this episode:

• How diet mentality disconnects you from your awareness of hunger and fullness
• How to get better at eating when you’re hungry and stopping when you’re full
• The Hunger Scale and how to use it
• Practices for tuning in to what your body needs
• Practices for getting better at noticing when your body is full or satisfied
