Hi,

I read your question and at first I did have a bit of a problem distinguishing 'hunger'.  Dr. Stegemann described it to me one day in a followup checkup and it made sense to me what I had been feeling.  He said it's like an empty feeling - I also get a little light-headed or weak, if it's been too long between meals for me.

 

You'll be able to tell when you're feeling 'emtpy' - but it's not an emotional empty, a physical one.

 

Hope this helps a bit.

 

Sandra
