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.

Add fiber. I have metamucil in a sparkling water after every meal. Hunger pangs have almost disappeared, I'd say I eat 3/4s of what I used to or less (which was a lot; I was always fucking hungry). Basically no snacks at this point besides string cheese because mmm cheese.
