RESET: your circadian rhythm to activate hunger hormones that reduce your appetite.STEP 4. REFRESH: with a good night's sleep, using proven good sleep habits used by the U.S. military.STEP 5. RETRAIN: your body with exercise that regulates key neurotransmitters that influence our hunger response.Complete with more than thirty delicious recipes and peppered with easy Hunger Hacks and Cravings Crushers--like eating walnuts to reduce hunger and getting direct sunlight first thing in the morning--I'm So Effing Hungry is a complete guide to help you reframe decades-old dieting patterns and stop fighting the scale.
