Chemical Changes
Hunger causes certain chemical and hormonal changes in the body, and the brain processes these signals the same way it would process sadness, fear or anger.
The brain tries to tell us when we are hungry that the body is not in a good shape and an action (like eating food in this case) needs to be taken.

What eating a big meal does to your body
The sensation of hunger
Hormones get released when we are hungry: NPY and AgRP from the hypothalamus, and ghrelin from the stomach.
Ghrelin levels tend to be higher in lean individuals and lower in peop...
Feeling sated
- GIP and GLP-1 are responsible for stimulating the production of insulin to regulate the metabolism of carbohydrates.
- Other hormones are involved in slowing down the movement of food through the stomach.
- CKK and PYY are vital in reducing the feeling of hunger. (Increased PYY causes a loss of appetite and is particularly high in patients who have a gastric band fitted to reduce the size of the stomach.)
Overeating is a habit
Even though your stomach has a hormonal system for telling your brain it is empty, it can also raise your hunger levels at specific times by learned associations, even if you had a large meal.
If you repeatedly eat chocolate after dinner when you sit on the couch, your body can start to associate sitting on the couch with eating, and you'll experience a craving.

Our Subconscious Beliefs

Our Thoughts Make Us Weak
False subconscious beliefs include a feeling of nobody caring about what you have to say, a feeling of worthlessness and imagining yourself to be a miserable failure.
The astounding part is that we live most of our lives carrying these chronic false beliefs in us, manifesting them into unconscious actions leading to eating disorders.
Curing The Negative Self-Image
The cure to a negative self-image formed by your beliefs is to be aware of what you think, speak or do. If you start to recognize your behavioural patterns, your hunger cravings and just pause before a habitual activity is starting, you can get a grip on the underlying emotions that drive these beliefs and corresponding actions.
Awareness and body-connection become your starting point, and one can then learn to recognize, manage, accept, and allow emotions, with eyes wide open.
