The bigger the meal the hungrier I am hours later. Why??

I have been dieting for 2 months now with great results. The whole day I eat every few hr and I barely have any cravings in fact I sometimes have to force myself to eat. The weird thing is like tonight I wasn't hungry for dinner I forced myself to make it but once I was finished with my small portion I craved one of my two daily snacks and after that I craved one of my two fruit servings. It's gotten so bad that I have to save a lot of my food for after dinner so that I feel satisfied. It's not just dinner though. If I eat a bigger lunch or bfast it's like I'm hungrier. Is it because I am coming down from a higher sugar crash than if my dinner was something super small? Like I said it just seems the larger the meal the hungrier I am shortly after I eat thst meal

Just so I'm clear the main problem isn't while I'm eating so much it's an hr or two after i eat it. Also my 3 main meals are bfast, lunch, dinner. I also have 2 really small meals in between those. Like I said though I am fine after my small meals but after I eat one of the bigger ones I am hungry again a few hr later but with the snacks I am fine. Hope this helps.
