In this episode of Weight Loss Made Simple, Dr. Stacy dives deep into the world of hunger—what causes it, why it can feel overwhelming, and how GLP-1 medications can help you manage it. If you've ever felt like your hunger is out of control or have been afraid of getting hungry again after being on GLP-1 meds, this episode is for you!

Dr. Stacy breaks down the science behind hunger hormones like ghrelin (the hunger hormone) and leptin (the satiety hormone), explaining how they work together to signal when to eat and when to stop. You'll learn how these hormones can get disrupted by things like sugar and stress, leaving you feeling hungrier than you should or making it harder to recognize when you're full.

She also introduces two types of hunger that many of us experience: Tornado Siren Hunger and Regular Hunger. Tornado Siren Hunger can feel like an emergency, overwhelming and out of control, while Regular Hunger is a more manageable, gentle reminder that it's time to eat. Understanding the difference is key to making better food choices.

Plus, Dr. Stacy shares practical tips for managing both types of hunger, including how to recognize your body's signals and when to reach for healthy snacks or meals. Whether you're on GLP-1 medications or not, learning to reconnect with your body's hunger cues can help you make better decisions around food and feel more in control.
