Hunger and satiety cues are there for a reason. While being a little bit hungry isn’t going to kill you, and may be required if you are looking to drop some weight, letting yourself get to the point of ravenous will only lead you to overconsumption, and back to where you started.
Tuning into your hunger and fullness/satiety cues is a major skill for long term healthy weight management and one of the easiest ways to self assess how well your meal composition skills are going.
