True benefit of hunger

I've been letting myself get really hungry between meals and I've learned something very cool. Most diet books tell you to look at food as
Fuel. And people who don't are ususally racked with guilt once they eat something non-diety. So either eat food you don't like or hate yourself for eating food you do like. Been there done that. It's dietary hell.

I found if I excersize and eat only 3 meals a day and only after I'm truly hungry I enjoy my food immensely. Plus I get cravings for fairly healthy fare like salmon and lentils. But even if I eat a burger, it tastes like the best burger I've ever had. Eating is fun now.
