    Hunger vs craving: a 60-second check

    You do not need a perfect label to eat—but naming the pattern helps you choose tools that actually match the problem.

    Three questions

    When did I last eat protein? Am I tired or stressed? Would multiple foods work, or only one specific thing?

    If multiple foods work

    Lean toward hunger—eat a balanced mini-meal.

    If only one food will do

    Lean toward craving cues—address state change first, then decide if you still want it on purpose.
