About this listen
Do you constantly think about food? Do you fear that you'll lose control if you give into your cravings? You're not alone—and there's nothing wrong with your body or brain.
In How to Beat Extreme Hunger, neurodivergent eating disorder recovery coach Livia Sara delves into the biological mechanisms behind extreme hunger, explaining why it happens and how to navigate it. Through a blend of science and lived experience, she tackles the fears that keep you stuck: uncontrollable weight gain, becoming "addicted" to food, developing binge eating disorder, and beyond.
Going far deeper than traditional recovery resources, this gender-inclusive guide explores nervous system regulation and hormonal healing through the lens of polyvagal theory. From managing digestive issues to weathering emotional storms, Livia helps you trust your body's process and make peace with food and exercise.
Are you ready to stop fighting your hunger and start understanding it? Download How to Beat Extreme Hunger, your neurodiversity-affirming roadmap to breaking free from labels and creating your unique version of freedom—one where you feel satisfied in every sense of the word.

This book is a revelation – a beacon of truth in a sea of misconceptions. Livia fearlessly drops 'truth bombs' that illuminate the hidden aspects of our relationship with food and our bodies.

As a food freedom and body love coach, I wholeheartedly believe that How to Beat Extreme Hunger is a game-changer for anyone seeking liberation from the grip of extreme hunger. I'll definitely be sending each of my clients a copy! If you're ready to embark on a journey that promises more than overcoming extreme hunger, your search ends here.

Liv, you’re a freaking genius and a positive light in this world!" – Victoria Kleinsman, Food Freedom & Body Love Coach
"How to Beat Extreme Hunger is an engaging and comprehensive deep dive into understanding a very normal but often misunderstood part of the recovery process. Livia explores this phenomenon from multiple perspectives, helpfully dissecting different types of hunger, the nervous system, hormones, restriction, and much more. Livia is an engaging writer, delving thoroughly into the science of the extreme hunger experience whilst also drawing from her personal journey with deep authenticity and vulnerability. I highly recommend this book to anyone navigating eating disorder recovery!" – Harriet Frew, The Eating Disorder Therapist
"Liv takes the confusing and often frightening concept of 'extreme hunger' and makes it relatable, logical, and easier to understand. Anyone dealing with extreme hunger from restrictive eating disorders will likely benefit from the way Liv breaks down the what, how, and why of their seemingly out-of-control hunger patterns. With insights ranging from the cognitive, emotional, physical, physiological, and somatic (nervous system), this book is an empathetic and practical guide for getting through this messy part of recovery." – Stefanie Michele, Binge Eating and Body Image Coach]

Something that makes all the difference with this book is that it is written by someone who has been through it all. Someone who has had all the same doubts and fears and has come to the other side to encourage others.
So HUGE thank you to Livia! This book was a turning point and I now feel so much easier moving forward. Definitely recommend everyone to read/listen this if they feel lost with their recovery and hunger.
Ps. Listening Livia to read her book by herself was just perfect and brought her story and explanations even more to life!
A must listen to support ed recovery!

I could relate to so much that Livia talks about when she explains with such honesty and openness about what she has been through herself and I found it so inspirational to listen to how she got through it.
Livia has done so much research into all the science of eating disorders, she really knows her stuff! I found it fascinating learning all the reasons behind extreme hunger and all the other eating disorder behaviours which Livia explains in such a clear and concise way. I feel that I have so much more understanding of how the body and brain works now and have had so many “light-bulb” moments while listening to this book where things all started to make sense. I feel so much less alone and frightened now too because I know that all that happens during and recovering from an eating disorder is “normal “.
I was especially pleased that Livia read the audio book herself instead of getting someone else to read it like some people do because she has a great way of talking directly to the reader, it felt like she was talking to me personally, offering encouragement, inspiration , help and advice whilst also making me realise that it is only me who has the power to beat my eating disorder.
I will definitely be going back again and again to re-listen to this book , whenever I need a boost to keep on going to full recovery as Livia has proved it is possible !
A fantastic , helpful book . Highly recommend!!
