2 Tips to Control Hunger and Lose Weight
November 24th, 2008
Is hunger bad? It is, and isn’t. Hunger is good as long as it exists to help you survive by forcing you to eat. But when it morphs into a colossal force that compels you to eat dozens of burgers every few hours, then it is not good at all! In fact, hunger can be one of our worst enemies and can make us overweight if we let it spiral out of control. If you won’t to lose weight, you just learn to control hunger.
1. Appetite suppressants: People often ask me whether appetite suppressants really work or not. Truth to be told, I have found from my research that most of them don’t work at all! Plus many of the popular appetite suppressants can have harmful side effects on your body. The only appetite suppressant I would recommend is Hoodia, firstly because it is completely natural (being made form the Hoodia cactus), and secondly, it has worked for me! I would recommend that you stay way from any diet pill that contains caffeine or any other stimulants!
Hoodia can be found in many forms: you can find it in the form of tablets as well as powder. I don’t know about others, but for me, the powdered form has worked best. What I would do is just take one teaspoonful of the powdered Hoodia in a cupful of water, and mix a little bit of lemon juice to it! Now if you are tongue-sensitive (that is, if you like only tasty foods) then I am not sure if you will be able to follow my suggestion. That is because this mixture tastes very bad and I had to literally force myself to drink it.
But there was one major advantage of following this technique. I could go on fasting for an indefinite period, say twenty, or even forty days, and feel no hunger pangs! Absolutely amazing, isn’t it?
2. Hunger pangs are positive signals: Don’t be afraid of hunger pangs, and don’t look at them as though they are punishments to be endured! Hunger pangs are positive signals of the fact that your body is working hard to help you with weight loss. These hunger pangs are caused when your body releases the toxins present inside your fat deposits.
Remember that if you can keep up with your hunger for at least a couple of weeks, you will feel as if you can go on fasting for an indefinite period of time. Now I don’t recommend fasting for too long because that would make you anorexic, but I am telling you that that you need to learn to discipline yourself! Unless you attempt to control your hunger pangs, they will lead you to the same bad lifestyle habits which made you overweight in the first place!
