Hi @Emmansund , welcome to the forum.

What are your blood sugars usually like? High numbers can make you hungry because you aren't using the nutrients.
When are you getting hungry? In the middle of the night when you should be sleeping or simply by breakfast time?

Are you losing weight?

If you are neither gaining, nor losing weight, perhaps you are actually hungry. Being full, doesn't always equate to being nourished.
If I am going through a hungry phase, and don't want to gain weight, I try to increase my proteins or fats a little, rather than carbohydrates. I do that partly because I live a lower carb lifestyle, and partly because carbohydrates,in some people, can lead to hunger pangs as the carbs tend to be digested more quickly than the proteins or fats

Could it be thirst? Sometimes that can make a person think that they're hungry. Try drinking a lot of room temperature water first thing - leave it to warm up overnight.
