Interesting article about how our mind can trick us into being hungry. Apparently it might not be as easy as just calories in versus calories out. Happy Monday!

It is so true the mind could play games with the body. Many of us became overweight because we allowed our minds to trick our bodies into believing we need more food than necessary. We didn't only eat because we were hungry. Emotions played a huge part (stress, nervousness, boredom, or just because the food was available).0
