Appetite vs. Hunger

Most people use the words appetite and hunger interchangeably.  They do however have different definitions.  Hunger is caused by having an empty stomach.  It is the actual feeling we get when our bodies need food.  Appetite is psychological.  It is the desire to eat, whether that be from stress, anxiety, boredom, or just because the food looks or smells so darn good.

WeightLus decreases appetite, not hunger.  Make sure when taking WeightLus (or any other time you are trying to eat less) that you eat when you know your body needs it, otherwise your body will go into "starvation mode" and will store fat.
