1.  I remember a quote from Judith Beck's book, The Beck Diet:  "HUNGER IS NEVER AN EMERGENCY."  Dr. Beck says that severe bleeding, for example, is a true emergency and must be tended to.  But hunger is not; if you do nothing, guess what?  It goes away.  It's never an emergency. <<
 
On another group, we were talking about hunger and a member said that if we allow ourselves to 'get hungry', then our body has already gone in to its 'conserve energy' mode, which will reduce your blood sugar level.
 
Is there a difference between the 'shut down' hunger and the 'hunger that goes away'? or are they both the same and are we hurting ourselves by not listening to the 'message'?
 
(I still havent gotten back to reading the ebook;perhaps the answer is in there!)
