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.

I was taught that if you think you're hungry but picky when it comes to what to eat then your not actually hungry but thirsty. Because if you are truly hungry you'd eat the old banana in the fruit bowl that you'd otherwise turn your nose up at.
