Hunger and appetite awareness




Many of us eat when we are too hungry and then eat past the feeling of
being comfortably full.
Rate your hunger levels before and after you eat by using the following scale.
Make sure you eat with the initial signs of hunger (level 3) and only eat to be


feeling satisfied (level 5).



HUNGER SCALE



1
Incredibly Hungry
(starving, dizzy, irritable)




2
Hungry
(feeling ready to eat)




3
Initial Signs of Hunger
(slight pangs)




4
Neutral
(not full or hungry)




5
Satisfied
(feeling comfortable)




6
Full
(feel like you have over eaten)




7
Overfull
(feeling sick)
