According to the news of AA; Nutrition and Dietetics Department Specialist, dietitian Maria Tanoğlu said that many people complain of not being able to lose weight or gaining back the weight they lost, and that the underlying reason may be emotional hunger. >
Tanoğlu, pointing out that those who break their diet very quickly, experience a sweet crisis during the day and succumb to it, and start to feel hunger in a short time like 10 minutes after getting up from the dinner table in regimes that start with determination in the morning, may face "emotional hunger", He said: "We divide the feeling of hunger into two as physiological and emotional. Physiological hunger is the real hunger for the body's energy needs. Emotional hunger is the hunger of the brain, not the body. Especially because of stress, extreme sadness, anger, feeling of loneliness, difficulties in daily life. Emotional hunger arises in line with our hormonal changes that are triggered by negative emotions. If you are unable to lose weight, maintain the weight you lose, or have eating attacks, the reason may be emotional hunger. You may be experiencing emotional hunger whenever you know that your stomach is physically full but you still feel hungry.
If you know that you are full with a plate of food under normal conditions, but you ate a plate that day but are not satisfied, you have come to the point where we call 'attention'. Before you eat the second plate, say 'stop' to yourself and wait for the 20 minutes to be up. Let the brain send the signal of satiety. If you are still hungry after 20 minutes, make sure to drink water first and change the environment you are in, even for 5-10 minutes. You will feel that what you are experiencing is emotional hunger, that your stomach is actually full and satiated. Studies have shown that sadness, anger, stress, boredom, loneliness, etc. She states that these reasons can lead to emotional hunger."
"ONLY ONE OF 10 WOMEN CAN FINISH THE DIET THAT THEY STARTED"

He explained that the cure prepared by adding ginger, turmeric and cinnamon to yogurt can be consumed at the last snack, and that the effect of the cure can be maximized by drinking plenty of water on it. Being able to finish the diet is actually a situation that can be seen in one out of 10 women. We can describe this situation as a psychological war between the brain and the stomach. One of the main reasons for me to study psychology as a minor is to be able to guide my clients well in this process. Because the weight loss process is successful not only with a healthy diet, but also when we can manage the psychological processes of the clients well. One of the steps to make the diet sustainable is to accept that your program is not a diet, but a healthy diet. Therefore, ask your dietitian to arrange lists that can be adapted to daily life. Because as long as you accept the new nutritional model you will adopt and adapt it to your life, you will be successful. As soon as you decide, make an appointment with a dietitian and start the first day you are available. You don't need to wait until Monday to start the diet."

If a person wants to eat a lot, he should eat it. Because if the desire to eat cannot be controlled, his stress will increase, then he should eat by paying attention to portion control. On the other hand, serotonin Foods that contribute positively to the level of health and have natural antidepressant properties will be very useful in such attacks. For example, bananas, strawberries, asparagus, cherry tomatoes, chocolate, potatoes, coconut, yoghurt... The foods that are missed as a result of occasional food attacks increase the success rate in the diet from 100 to 70, but do not reset it. In other words, it should not be thought that 'the diet is over, the diet is completely disrupted', because a meal was scammed. From the next meal, you should continue to eat in accordance with the nutrition program."
