My hunger log keeps arguing with the appetite threads

I track daily weight, a 7-day median, protein, steps, and an 8 p.m. hunger score. Through 23 weeks and 31 lb down, my trendline is still mostly downward, but the appetite part is not the fairy tale I read here. My 8 p.m. score bottomed at 2.4 in week 11; it's averaged 5.7 this month. I can still finish a normal dinner and think about crackers an hour later. Not saying anyone is lying, but when a post says one bite shuts everything off for 14 days, I wonder if we're all using the same 1-10 scale. Maybe the quiet middle just doesn't get posted. For people past month five: what's your actual evening hunger number on a boring Tuesday?
