Listen to interview [audio player at end of post] with host Eric Michaels & guest Laura Cipullo discuss the following:

• What is the non-diet approach?
• What is a hunger fullness scale?
• Are all people able to identify when they are hungry and or full? It seems that Americans have trouble stopping when full.
• Can people lose weight using the non-diet approach?
• Are there any good resources our listeners can access to help them learn more about this approach?
