Here are ways to help you manage hunger to avoid any chance of becoming a compulsive eater.
Quantify and manage hunger.
Hunger has different intensities. When you feel hungry, mark the degree of the hunger in your mind; 1 as a little hungry and 5 as famished. Put off hunger if you can. You overcome the hunger, and eating is postponed.
Do you feel alright? Cherish your success!
Eat sparingly.
Hunger prepares the stomach for food. Eat sparingly, and the taste of the food is better. This method of eating will give you a blast of energy better than a high from coffee.
Resolve on how much to eat.
Eat predetermined quantities, and ascertain how much is enough. Chew upon your meals well. Relax and take it slowly. Luxuriate and indulge on each bite. Savor each moment as if tomorrow will never come.
Drink at the end of the meal.
Herbal tea is calming, it is a wonderful drink after a meal and will take you out of the overeating mode. This creates in the stomach the sense of gratification. Are you delighted now? Be thankful you are satisfied.
When you are hungry again, deal with it and be serene. Hunger can cause the feeling of defeat. Dismiss it. Hunger triggers torturous emotions. Ignore it. You can do it!
