This may or may not have worked for you but I’ve found a lot of people just don’t give their bodies enough time to adjust to caloric deficit, it takes a couple weeks.
If you ever tried water fasting first couple of days are gruelling but day 3 and 4 are significantly easier. Another natural hunger suppressant is cardio which reduces hunger.
Ive never found cardio to suppress hunger. If anything I end up eating more after a large workload (fuel the afterburn i suspect). That said there are certainly lots of stabilizers from cardio…. Maybe if i was in a study id see a reduction in snacking or something..
I did keto for 9 months and was also doing cardio and resistance training.
The hunger never went away.
I'm sure it works for some folks, but for those of us with "the little fat dude in our head", the hunger never goes away. The drugs work wonders, though. Cardio definitely always just made me more hungry even after 1-2 months of race training.

It can also increase it! Both effects are scientifically plausible
