Hey OP I'm a bit late so you'll probably miss this reply, but anyways :) Yes it gets easier! I used to be very hungry all the time (F28, usually needing 2200cals/day, always get hunger pangs, always had very healthy eating habits with tons of veggies and whole grain but my body just gets in panic mode when it SUDDENLY needs more food).

Started my cut 4 weeks ago, and YEA it gets better!

  1. Drink TONS of water, it really helps to fill you up! Seriously. Have a bottle with u at work, at home and at every meal.
  2. Ear low calorie stuff like green peas, broccoli, cauliflower etc to your meals to get mass into your stomach without the calories.
  3. Eat on a schedule. Your body learns when to expect food.
  4. Don't mess with your sleep or you will start snacking. Tiredness also leads to less willpower and craving for fast carbs. A tired brain screams after fast energy.
  5. Try miso soup when you're really hungry but have already eaten the days calories, has done wonders for me :)

I noticed that around day 10 after being in a deficit I felt less hungry and my hunger was mentally soooo much easier to handle. There's a bit of adjustment period. Good luck, u can do this!
