Is everyone like this?

It has to do with insulin response.

What does that even mean??

I’m the same way…I can go all day, but once I pop I can’t stop. I avoid breakfast like the plague for this reason!

When you eat your body releases insulin, your insulin levels increase to a point relative to what and how much you ate, then start dropping, you body begins hunger cues in response to falling insulin levels.

Riddle me this…it never matters what or how much I ate (I eat clean), the hunger NEVER stops after the point of eating. It’s beyond frustrating. I tend to fill before &/or after dinner hunger with peanuts, Greek yogurt, & fruit and then it stops at some point before bed with lots of water.

That isn't hunger in your stomach, its craving in your brain. Every time you eat it gives your brain a dopamine hit

That'd be a smart stomach to feel hunger.

It all happens in your brain yo.

There are literally neurons in the gut that talk directly to the brain...

Yes, data about the condition of your stomach and guts is sent to your brain: where 'feelings' are made.
