ABOUT THE CONTENT

In this episode of WLS Delight we'll first explore the three drivers of head hunger (cultural programming, habits and emotions) and then we'll dive into how to tell the difference between head hunger and real hunger. Differentiators include:
Speed
Urgency
Timing
Physical Sensations
What You Crave
We then walk through a mental checklist you can use to evaluate whether it is habit or hunger, including
How long has it been since you ate
Are you experiencing physical hunger sensations
On a scale of 1 to 5 how hungry are you
1 is starving
2 is hungry
3 is mildly hungry
4 is satiated
5 is stuffed
You'll also learn the "dangle the carrot" test.

ABOUT SHELLY
Shelly Southall is a “Rightsize Living Expert” with a passion for helping people who are struggling with weight regain, or the paralyzing fear of regain, after weight loss surgery. Shelly began her battle with obesity as a young girl, starting her first doctordirected diet at 8 years old. From there, she was sucked into the yoyo cycle of dieting which included hospital programs, nutritionists, psychologists, fat camps, starvation, pills and just about every bigname diet program you can imagine. She underwent gastric bypass surgery in 2002, losing 101 pounds. Shortly thereafter, some of the bad habits returned and her lifelong struggle resumed … and she eventually regained half of the weight she had lost through surgery. After more than a decade of struggle with postsurgery regain she finally figured out how to break free from the chains of obesity once and for all. Today, Shelly helps others achieve rightsize living through her program Bitesize Changes, which is based on a 7step process designed to help people transform their lives one habit at a time.
