"I wanted it": All about managing desire
Some of the topics we discuss in this episode include:
- Why ignoring your wants causes problems
- Why you can feel like you really want a particular food, but then be unsatisfied once you have it
- Why wanting something doesn't mean it's a good idea to eat it (or that it will make you happy)
- Why we are poor at predicting how it will feel to have (or not have) something we want
- What to do when you want conflicting things at the same time
