I have been off and on the paleodiet for 4 years now.  I have gotten to the point where I prefer to eat a huge amount of food (3+ lbs of meat, salad or greens, and some fruit) at one sitting (usually lunch) and have no appetite otherwise.  When I am really hungry (usually at lunchtime), it is as you described very different from the 'hormonal hunger' that I experience on a higher carb diet.

Giving up fruit except for two or three meals a week has given me a new
understanding of the sense of hunger.  If I have a nibble of meat in the
morning, and nothing other than a black coffee and water for through till
lunchtime, I find that I do not experience any hunger AT ALL.  The has
amazed me.  The has amazed me.  Rob Faigin, in his Natural Hormonal Enhancement, differentiates between what he calls 'hormonal hunger' (which I now understand I used to have and mistook for real hunger) and 'real hunger'.
