I agree actually. You have to really want to change enough go through all the pain and suffering and to persist indefinitely. I have a lot of difficulty with hunger, to the point I couldn't fight it on will alone and would find myself compulsively eating and unable to stop myself. Rather than kill myself out of frustration over slowly undoing all that I had suffered for I kept trying different things until something worked, and that something was ephedrine.
Everyone responds differently to diet and exercise. For me, intense 30 min cardio makes me not hungry, which is probably counterintuitive for most people.
And for any nutrition plan,ensure you get all your macros in your feeding window too. I've totally found that hunger is suppressed by IF though, but only after a week or so of doing it. Even if you did everything right, maybe it's just not for your body.
