It depends. If you eat frequently, regardless of how much you eat, you're going to feel hungry relatively soon at any given point. So, eating at a deficit just amplifies that. It's hard to ignore.

However, I'm a big fan of fasting (though I haven't been very consistent with it lately). Once my body eventually gets used to not eating multiple times per day and instead, say, eating one big meal once per day, I don't feel hungry at all until dinner time.

Even if you do eat at a reasonable deficit, and your daily meal is healthy/has enough fiber/protein, it's way more likely to satiate you.

Not really related to the post, but if I'm doing OMAD (one meal a day) consistently, fasting also makes me feel great. I get a noticeable increase in energy and mental clarity.
