I'm not a massive proponent of regular fasting but, having done it long enough, I've learned what hungry really means. The experience was invaluable because of that. I had (and still have to some extent) that same feeling you have but that's not hunger. For me, sometimes it was boredom, sometimes it was routine ("it's 6pm, dinner time!") or just straight up gluttony but that's not real hunger. Want to eat and need to eat are very different. I'm saying all of this with a bag of cheezits next to me at 12am.
