Brad, Jeff, Alberto, and Brian discuss how to successfully manage your appetite during prep, strategies to lower hunger, how to prevent binges, and what to do if you binge. In Alberto’s opinion, what is the most-important meal when prepping? Is it sometimes a good idea to actually lower your protein intake so that you can increase your carbohydrate intake? What can help you decide how to spread your calories out throughout the day? What are some of the coaches’ best hunger hacks? What should you do about your trigger foods? What is the difference between physical hunger, emotional hunger, and social hunger? The answers to these questions and many more are covered in this episode.
