Exactly. If you're still hungry after eating, then you're starving yourself.

The point is to eat until you're satisfied, not until you're completely full. If you have a difficult time determining when that point is, count calories for a week or two until you figure it out. I consume an average of 2300 calories a day. That's a lot of food—about two large meals a day (or one large meal + constant snacking throughout the day)—but I'm still losing about half a kilogram (1.1lb) per week on average. All because I'm burning more than I eat. And I barely even work out.

Or leptin insensitivity

Never heard of it, thanks for sharing. I can't comment on hunger but anything over 1-2% body weight per month is going to be absolutely brutal even for a leptin-normal person. Unless this person weighs 250-500 kg that will be impossible to adhere to and they will fall into a cycle of shame and rebound weight gain. Please don't do that to yourself, be gentle.
