Packed with helpful tips and tricks, but at its core this book takes what feels like a complex and overwhelming subject and breaks it down into some very simple steps you can take to have a better, more controlled relationship with your body and food.

Interesting and well written I just personally couldn’t get into the story. Difficult to follow at times and a little slow. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

I really liked Amy Shah's writing style and practical advice given in regards to hunger, which actually spilled into other aspects of life such as sleep and stress management (since - surprise - this all affects hunger too). Some of the information was things I had picked up from other books I have read but some was new information to me. I also liked the recipes she had at the end of the book, though I would have liked some explanation of some of these ingredients she mentioned a little more because some of these ingredients I have never heard of!

This book was full of great information and easily implemented tips on how to eat to feel fuller and get more benefits from what you're eating. The first section covers a bunch of background info, the second section is 5 Steps to Freedom from Hunger and Cravings, and the last section is sample meal plans and recipes.
The book was both easy to read and easy to understand. I just wish there had been some photos to go along with the recipes.

A lot of great information, but nothing I haven't already heard. This feels like a beginner's guide to middle-aged women's health, hormones, and weight control...perfect for the right reader.

For so many of us, weight and weight loss rules our lives. We seek answers to how to lose weight, maintain weight, cut cravings, and succeed with a healthy lifestyle. For many of us, food cravings rule our life. We try low carb, keto, paleo, getting rid of sugar, getting rid of fats, anything to stop the cravings and lose weight. Amy Shah, a leading Gastroenterology Specialist, with years of experiences has written this book, “I’m so effing hungry, why we crave, what we crave and what to do about it” to impart knowledge about how to conquer your cravings so that you can improve digestion, weight, and hormone balance. While she presents scientific and medical information in this book, she does it in such a way to make it palatable and easy to read for all consumers. Dr. Shah presents a clear, 5 step plan to assist with your cravings and food consumption. The steps are: replenish by eating mood balancing foods, rewire your brain to eradicate the cravings for processed foods, reset your circadian rhythm, refresh with a good sleep and sleep habits, and retrain your body with exercise. This book also includes recipes to assist you in your journey. Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the advance review copy in exchange for my honest review.

I've read the other book by this author regarding energy. This book was very fact filled. There was at times too much science terms and it went over my head but overall I enjoyed the information. There wasn't really anything too new or shocking but it's a good foundation for those trying to work on their nutrition. Thank you to NetGalley for the ARC.

Good information about how to approach food and mealtimes to optimize health. Dr. Shah shares her tips and techniques for people to live their best lives and form a healthy relationship with food. She gives the reader helpful strategies and actionable steps in clear and concise language. The book ends with a number of recipes which sound delicious!

Lots of science based information to digest. The book is worth a read. Shah presents it all in an easy to understand way! Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC. Five stars!

This one was just "meh" to me. It read like every other diet book out there on the market. It wasn't awful, but wasn't particularly memorable either.

The title and cover of this book instantly hooked me and I couldn't wait to read this book. Dr. Shah does a great job breaking down the reasons why people feel hungry all of the time and offered easy to follow solutions to help reduce this hunger in a healthy way. While some of the solutions are not ones I will most likely follow it is good to know there are options available.

There is A LOT of science in this book. The author explains in great detail the science behind hunger. At times the science of it all is overwhelming (there's chapters of it). I found myself wanting to get to the nitty gritty of it all; what do I need to do and what should I be eating? It all boils down to the five steps...Replenish, Rewire, Reset, Refresh and Retrain. My thanks to the author for trying to "dumb down" the science but it was still just too much.

Thank you to NetGalley for giving me an ARC of this book.

Lots of science in this book! Fortunately the author explains in detail but it can be a bit overwhelming and I feel like I'll need to consult back with the book. She encouraged small steps but there is alot of content so I'll need to study more to do more than a small step. Very comprehensive approach.

I was extremely excited to receive an advance copy of this book as I have enjoyed the author's previous book, I'm So Effing Tired. I appreciate the author's words of caution at the start of the book around eating disorders. If you have trouble with food and your body image, you need to work with a professional prior to engaging in this book.

If you have struggled with your hunger, know something is off with your hormones, but can't quite figure it out, this book will be beneficial.

This book was such a breath of fresh air. Real, tangible EVIDENCE-BASED information and ways to actually take action. I finally feel like I have the answers I need to move forward. I can't wait to see the results from this approach and share it with others in my world who struggle with their weight.

Another great book from this author.
Amy covers it all for those who are done with "diets" and want real long lasting results.
Her explanation and theories are on the right track.
Thanks Netgalley and the publisher for this advanced reader's copy of this book.

I have been looking for easy ways to lose weight but always thought it was me who was always so hungry. Glad I'm not the only one and this book felt like it was written just for me. After reading this book, I have realized that I have an obsession with food and I would almost indulge in food even when I wasn't hungry. I could just be bored or just do it anyways. This book has made me aware of what I put in my mouth or what I could be doing to help my hunger feelings. If you're someone who deals with the same thing of food being an almost obsession or you secretly binge eat on food, get this book!

I'm really pleased with this book and all of the helpful information it contains. I am always interested in learning more about my body and how it functions and ways in which I can improve it. I learned so many things from Dr. Shah in this book: why we get hungry, what we can do about it and history behind our food and why hunger's meaning is more than meets the eye. There was a lot of scientific evidence to back up what the author wrote. I love that I didn't feel shamed and there were actionable steps I could take to fix my hunger issues and how this would help me to become a healthier person.

Thank you to NetGalley, Harvest and Harper Collins for the eARC of this book.

If you are trying to get down to a good weight but you not only can't but don't understand why, this is the book for you.

I was not expecting to gain a ton from this book as someone who has been on a weight loss journey for over a year, but it was packed with food and medical science information that I did not know before. I loved Dr. Shah’s straightforward, evidence based, and realistic advice. The great thing about the advice was that it was focused on stopping overeating and not on body shaming or fatphobia. I think that was a main piece of the book that set it apart from other nutrition books I’ve read. Dr. Shah explains how food companies have created addictive foods that just make us more hungry, how to effectively address emotional eating, and how the diet industry promotes a cycle of overeating. I also loved the critique of intuitive eating and how it’s not realistic for most people. Her alternative version is very thoughtful and pragmatic. I found myself taking notes throughout the book and I’ll definitely be recommending this to friends and family. Thank you to the publisher for the ARC.
