    Hunger-Body-Mind Connection

    Here are some different ways that you may experience signs of hunger. Over time you may notice that your body is more sensitive to more subtle levels of hunger and satiety, but knowing and re-learning what those signs are can be very helpful.

    Stomach

    A variety of sensations including rumbling, gurgling, gnawing, or emptiness. While this is a common way of experiencing hunger, there are many people who do not experience hunger signs in their stomach

    Throat & Oesophagus

    Dull ache, gnawing

    Head

    Cloudy thinking, light-headedness, and headache, difficulty focusing and concentrating. Experiencing more thoughts about food and eating.

    Energy

    Waning, perhaps even to the point of sleepiness. There can be dullness and even apathy towards doing anything

    Mood

    Irritability and crankiness. Perhaps you have to work harder to refrain from snapping, even though you don’t present irritable to the others.

    Numbness

    Overall lethargy

    Getting to know your hunger.

    To get in touch with the nuances of your hunger and fullness, try to check in with your body many times throughout the day. A handy way to do this is by using a rating scale from 0 to 10, where 0 is painful hunger and 10 is painful fullness. There is no right or wrong number, this is merely a method that helps you listen and become attuned to your hunger and fullness cues. The following chart gives you qualitative descriptions of the 0 to 10 scale in more detail.

    Over-hungry

    0 Painfully hungry. This is ‘primal hunger’, which is very intense and urgent
    1 Ravenous and irritable. Anxious to eat
    2 Very hungry. Looking forward to a hearty meal or snack
    3 Hungry and ready to eat, but without urgency. It’s a ‘polite’ hunger

    Normal Eating Range

    4 Subtly hungry, slightly empty
    5 Neutral. Neither hungry nor full
    6 Beginning to feel emerging fullness
    7 Comfortable fullness. You feel satisfied & content

    Over-full

    8 A little too full. This doesn’t feel pleasant, but it has not quite emerged into an unpleasant experience
    9 Very full, too full. You feel uncomfortable, as if you need to unbutton your trousers or remove your belt
    10 Painfully full, stuffed. You may feel nauseous

    Hunger discovery assessment.

    Use the Hunger Discovery Scale journal to keep track of your hunger rating, the quality of your hunger, and the foods eaten for a meal or snack. Do it for 5-7 days and record a usual day below so that we can explore this during your next appointment.


      Using the hunger scale above, at which rating do you usually FEEL the sensations of hunger?

      By the time your honour your hunger, does your hunger experience tend to be:
