The feeling of hunger can be difficult to explain sometimes, especially if you feel like you've eaten as much as you usually do. As a result, we often end up either snacking or putting up with a rumbling tummy for hours on end.

Even if we manage to resist snacking, the risk is that when it gets to meal time we end up eating twice as much as usual! Feelings of hunger can also lead to a drop in energy or concentration problems. A number of factors can explain not feeling full after eating. One is not getting breakfast “right”. If you skip it completely, or eat something too sweet, that could well be why you get hungry later on.

What if I'm not hungry in the morning? What about at lunchtime? What should I do if even sticking to those guidelines, I still feel hungry? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
