Hi,
I always used to feel hungry. This advice may sound counter-intuitive, but it worked for me!
I started fasting regularly, this helped my stomach shrink and I feel fuller a lot quicker.
Water consumption, I'm convinced that loads of people confuse thirst with hunger. Real hunger is felt in the throat and it takes a couple of days to feel real hunger in my experience. I drink 3-4 litres of water a day and this massively reduces hunger pangs.
Carbs are the devil if I carb binge my hunger pangs increase exponentially.
Eat high fat, high protein calorie dense food. I don't feel as hungry a few hours later when I do this.
This makes interesting reading. I think as diabetics it's not just insulin we lack, other parts of the endocrine system are affected, I read that the beta cells are also responsible in part for appetite regulation etc.

I don't suffer from hunger that much, but then I can't remember the last time I felt full or fully satisfied from eating. I can put away vast quantities of food, 5,000-6,000 calories in a sitting, 2kg of steak etc (not that I do very often ha) and still not feel full! I find that very weird. There is definitely something amiss with my appetite regulation that I believe to be diabetes related.
What it is I don't know.
