Sometimes you can feel really hungry when you're actually thirsty.
Could this be it?

Eat slightly more natural saturated fats (eggs, cheese full fat yoghurt). It's fat that the brain uses to tell you that you're no longer hungry. If your meal doesn't have enough fat in it your brain will continue to say you're hungry. Upping fats isn't a wise choice unless you drop your carbs as well as even though you should end up feeling less hungry you'll have eaten more calories. High fat, high carb meals are not good. High fat low carb meals aren't bad imo.
