Have you ever wondered how someone can eat until they’re full—and still feel hungry all day?
In this episode, Dr. Andrea Walker breaks down why constant hunger is not a willpower issue, not a discipline problem, and not a personal failure.

We dive into the real science behind hunger, including the role of hormones like ghrelin and leptin, blood sugar instability, stress, sleep, diet culture, and metabolic adaptation. You’ll learn why fullness and hunger are not the same thing, how “food noise” develops, and why so many people feel at war with their bodies around food.

Dr. Walker also explains how GLP-1 medications fit into the bigger picture—not as a shortcut, but as a tool that helps restore normal hunger signaling—and what you can start doing today to better support your metabolism, whether or not medication is part of your journey.

If you’ve ever felt confused, frustrated, or ashamed by your hunger, this episode is for you.
Your body isn’t broken—it’s been trying to protect you.
