Several things: -- You may be overeating protein. By calorie, protein is a very small portion of my diet (10% range). Try eating less protein and more fat in a given meal. Fat is what is satiating, not protein. Just eat protein to hunger, once you get adjusted. Some days I want more, some less.
-- Do you want to go ketogenic? Ketogenic is nearly no carbs (under 20 g per day). Most folks prefer to be low carb for which there is a much wider range, but basically 50-200 g of carbs per day. Fat will satiate more as you body gets used to being fat burning rather than fat storing. It can take a bit for the body's "fuel level" gauge to adjust to a new primary fuel. Grin.
