The thing with fasting/low-carb is that once you are adapted it takes quite a bit more to "feel hungry". In fact the feeling is qualitatively different.
I eventually tried the low-carb (actual low-carb of <100g carbs/day, not the fake one nutritionists study where "low" is like 40% carbs in your diet) because I kept hearing about it and it was so easy to self-experiment, so why not?
It was like the scales fell from my eyes when I realized that much of what I thought was "hunger" my whole life was actually "addictive cravings" for carbohydrates. And I was really not a fan of grains and sugary stuff to begin with.
