I am just wondering. I know for sure that my overeating and the binges ALWAYS took place when I could not possibly be physically hungry anymore, AFTER having meals already. At least I think that covers about 80% of the binges.
Now, with No S, I have been experiencing physical hunger, but only about 1 hour before it's time to eat and it feels rather pleasant. It is not the type of urgent physical hunger that I so often got when I would snack between meals - when I constantly felt that I had to be eating something (and something, and something) to "tide me over."
WW (and again, I am NOT knocking the program, I really learned a lot there over the course of one decade!!!) - anyway, WW always teaches you to "stay ahead of" your hunger and don't let yourself get too hungry or else you will binge. I think other approaches teach the same.
My own, subjective experience has been that the more I ate, or the more often I ate over the course of a day, the more I still wanted to eat.
By contrast, I don't know if it's the novelty or what, but I am getting this strange sensation that, by following No S, I do get hungry eventually but not too hungry - and as a new thing, I am feeling NOT AT ALL hungry shortly after meals (let's say, 1 hour after eating).
I am now wondering - was I just activating more hunger before BY EATING/SNACKING?
