I have the opposite problem. I am have issues eating enough. Despite doing things like drinking high protein shakes and putting extra olive oil on everything I am struggling to reach my burn rate on a daily basis. Just from a practical point of view, I am astounded that so many people, seemingly almost everyone, will eat 3000 calories a day or more if they're not careful.

agreed. it's crazy. but 3000 cal a day is incredibly easy if one simply does not care.

Am I correct in assuming that eating carbs like rice does not amplify your hunger 90 minutes to 2 or 3 hours later?

Correct. I do not have a big appetite, if I don't set reminders on my phone, I could eat only two or even one meal a day and not even notice.
