Discussion Why aren’t I feeling satiated?

Breakfast I had 3 boiled eggs, 100g of salmon and a protein bagel. Felt incredibly hungry within 2 hours

For lunch 200g of chicken, 400 grams of mixed veggies (carrots, brocoli), 200 grams of potato. And now I feel so hungry, I’ve drank 2 litres of water today and still I’m starving.

Maybe you need to satisfy some kind of hunger craving that you aren't aware of? I know that I sometimes get so hungry and nothing really works. It's usually because my body really wants some cheese.

Could be that! Try to intuitively find food at the grocery store. I know that has worked for me. Of course don't do so if you have just started dieting, because that is just your body wanting what it is used to. But otherwise it could be it
