I know that one – the slightest bit of something sweet on an empty stomach triggers my hunger.

Very interesting, in deed. Despite the weight gain and voracious appetite sugar creates, it also hinders dopamine. Suggesting avoid sugar at all costs! My hwp has a very high sugar (that is carb) diet and is always hungry. Unfortunately, he insists eating is the only pleasure he has left. I've been on a keto diet to lose weight and the global effect it's had on my psychological state has been simply amazing - plus 17kg lost ! But be careful, sugar includes pasta, bread, rice, bananas... as well as doughnuts, sweets and chocolate.
