About Think Yourself Thin

”Concerning the problem of obesity, perhaps our main impediment to developing a proper and healthy awareness of the sense of satiety [fullness] is that we have been indoctrinated as a culture to experience out bodily feelings solely as products of brain machinery, and therefore out of out control. Now we know that this is false. There is a lot we can do with out mental efforts to alter the machinery of the brain. We now know that cognitive training empowers us to alter the hunger mechanism of the bran so that we can effectively prevent ourselves from habitual and mindless overeating."
