Tried dieting in the past?

It’s the challenge of finding what works and what doesn’t…but then there are the myths, Fads and the trumped up stories?

Who do you believe?

And how do you tame those hunger hormones?

Taming hunger is a big challenge for many. Humans vary widely in their subjective experience of hunger due to neurobiological variations (our brains!) and how exposed we are to environmental cues. The key to appetite control is learning how your brain works and controlling the cues that set it off.

Gastric sleeve surgery can shift your hunger but it’s effect is only short lived, if you don’t understand the hunger types.


However we cannot tame something that we don’t quite understand.

If you haven’t already done so you might want to check out my latest video on
