It must be disconcerting to ask about being hungry and hear about your "bad" eating habits. Sort of like asking someone the time and being told you need to change your hair color.
However, there may actually be a connection. (Bear with me a minute here.) One of the suggestions for not feeling hungry all the time is to get more fiber (more bulk) into your meals via fruits and vegetables. Your problem is that you cannot tolerate fruits and vegetables. There is a possibility that by eating off-program (chocolate which has dairy and fat; ham; whatever was in those mysterious Lean Cuisine meals) you're making your gut more sensitive and thereby making it more difficult to tolerate fruits and vegetables.
I know that I have an internal limit on eating things that annoy my gut. If I spend that limit on Coca-Cola and wine, for example, my tummy is not going to stand still for my eating salads and apples. You know your own tummy best, of course, so maybe this isn't true for you. I just thought I'd throw it out there for you to think about.
HTH.

I got my original idea for preparing the Tilapia from this post, but I really disliked the taste of the fat-free italian dressing. Instead, this is how I make it...
If frozen, thaw tilapia (see my note below). I just use a tiny amount of olive oil (you could just brush a little on your fish before cooking or put a very little bit in the skillet). Place filets in a non-stick skillet over med heat. Sprinkle with Old Bay seasoning and a little ground Cumin. Cook for 3-4 minutes. Flip and sprinkle a little Old Bay on the other side, too. Cook for another 3-4 minutes or until fish is cooked through (flakes easily). That's it! Super easy and DEEELICIOUS!! Best served with Jasmine rice.
Note: I buy a big bag of frozen tilapia from Sam's. The filets are individually wrapped, so I can get out just the amount I need. I thaw them, still in their plastic, in the sink under cool running water.
