It's probably what you are eating that's making you hungrier throughout the day. If you're eating refined carbs and sugar for breakfast, there is little nutrition/little fiber so the food is digested rapidly which is also causing your blood sugar to rise quickly. You need to eat protein and fiber for every meal, not just breakfast.
Even rough cut oatmeal is not enough fiber. Also, are you drinking fruit juices for breakfast because those are nothing more than a pancreas bomb. Instead of that glass of fruit juice, have an orange or a grapefruit with that NON-instant/NON-quick cooking oatmeal. By eating the whole fruit you are getting the benefits of the fiber, which you don't get by drinking fruit juices. Tomato juice/V8 is a great alternative. Just make sure there is no added sugar to the brand you buy.
I often have a leftover portion of last nights dinner entree, for breakfast. (such as part of a pork chop, part of a steak, leftover cooked beans, etc.) Eggs are no longer 'bad' for you so make a omelet loaded with vegetables, or a frittata. Just leave out the potatoes. Stay away from the breakfast breads, muffins, pancakes, waffles, scones, etc. Even if they're whole grain you still need to eat protein with them.
If you are eating adequate protein and fiber with every meal, you will not be hungry all day long. Snack on high fiber vegetables like sugar pea pods, tomatoes, cauliflower, celery with natural peanut butter (no added sugars), the list is endless depending on what you like.
I very much limit the sweets that I eat because I know, if I eat a piece of chocolate in the morning...I will want that sugar fix all day long. But yet, I don't crave sugar when I keep to eating complex carbs and protein. And keep in mind that there is sugar in practically every processed food you buy; spaghetti sauce, ketsup, peanut butter, jams/jelly, bread, soy sauce, canned baked beans, breakfast cereals, purchased baked goods, blah, blah, blah. You've heard this all before. READ the food labels before you buy. I don't buy any processed foods that have added sugars and no one in my family craves sugar because we don't eat it except in fruit and the occassional sweet treats like homemade cookies and fruit tarts. Another tip that might help you is I don't eat fruit just by itself. If I'm going to have an apple I have cheese with it...a protein. The addition of the protein slows down the digestion of the fructose in the apple. And my kids have been trained to think the same way. We generally have fruits or that occassional sweet treat AFTER we have eaten a high fiber/protein meal. Fruit is dessert in my house and by eating it after the main meal your blood sugar will not spike as dramatically as when you eat sugar just by itself.
You only have one pancreas and as of yet, transplants are not an option. Take care of the one you have. Just as you don't smoke so you have healthy lungs...don't live on sugar so you have a healthy pancreas.
