We are often afraid of hunger. I know I sure was.

 I don’t mean true “hunger” where food is scarce and humans are starving. You are not that person if you are reading this right now.

 I just mean the sensation of “being hungry” when food is in abundance.

 In the past, if I were going to be without food for a while, I would eat, even though I wasn’t hungry, so that I wouldn’t get hungry later!

 Pre-emptive eating.

When I wasn’t hungry.

So I would not get hungry.

 Good Grief.

Hunger is a fantastic thing! As long as your body is working normally. Want to learn more?
