protein intake and hunger

Ok being just over 6 weeks out i have noticed on days when I don't get my protein in the following day I fight with hunger all day. I don't know if it is head hunger or actual hunger. At this point I don't care what it is I just work harder at getting my protein in. I also realized that I can sometimes beat hunger by drinking more water or in my case poweraide zero. I have been having a hard time getting my fluids in i get them in roughly every other day. Has anyone else noticed this or am I just a freak like my wife keeps telling me.

I've found that when I skimp on protein I get pretty hungry too, and I think it is the body actually trying to make up for the deficiency ..   A few hours after finally eating enough of it the cravings to eat seem to go down markedly for me ..
