No. Something is wrong if you are less hungry despite eating less.
Here are some possibilities:
(1) Wrong medications (metformin --> lactic acidosis).
(2) Wrong diet (not enough carbs --> hyperketonemia).
(3) Wrong amount (not enough food --> starvation ketosis).
(4) Hanging around the wrong people.
(5) Doing the wrong things.
(6) Overdoing things (exhausion).
(7) Another yet-to-be-diagnosed medical condition.
Would suggest you inform your doctor(s) about the lose of appetite so
s/he can help you figure out what is wrong.
May GOD bless you in HIS mighty way making you healthier (hungrier)
than ever.
Prayerfully in Jesus' awesome love,

Matthew 5:6 - Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for
righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.
Luke 6:21, 25 - Blessed are you who are hungry now, for you shall be
satisfied. . . Woe to you who are full now, for you shall be hungry.
Both these quotes from the Bible, and both infer that God (or Jesus)
considers hunger to be BAD.
Those who are hungry (for food or spiritual matters) will have the BAD
hunger removed, and those who are 'full' will be made hungry because
hunger is BAD.
"Woe to you who are full now, for you shall be hungry" means HUNGER IS
BAD
Chung twists these quotes to sell his diet and gain fraudulent donations
for his one-man charity. No wonder he dare not set foot inside a church.
The Two Pound Diet is based on a lie, and Chung distorts scripture to
sell it. Expect him to either run away screerching and howling, or do a
furious little foot-stamping jig on Bob Pastorio's grave. Either way
Chung's core lies are exposed and the VICTORY is for the TRUTH of his
vile ways.

This would be where you meter is leading you astray as your VAT
increases worsening your IR thereby harming you in the long run.
This would be analogous to what a daytrader does going after things in
a shortsighted manner.
Wiser to eat less, down to the optimal amount to lose the VAT thereby
curing the MetS and possibly eventually also the type-2 diabetes.
It is the world's terrible lie that "hunger is bad" that keeps you
from doing the latter.

Being less hungry is not good.

The loss of appetite would still be a concern.

Perhaps you are spending less time with them in order not to be as
hungry.

They would be concerned if you told them you are less hungry despite
eating less and losing weight.
This is abnormal.
What is normal is becoming hungrier as you purposefully eat less and
consequently lose weight.

It is having the world's lie that hunger is bad in your heart that
will keep you from being successful because this lie causes the
compulsion to overeat.

This simply shows that you have the world's great lie about hunger
being bad in your heart:

There remains hope until you die as an atheist.

Is a frequent and proven liar (evidence archived forever on Google)
Has lost numerous NNTP accounts with supernews and others, has had many
Google accounts nuked, and his vanity domain heartmdphd.com is now
banned from setting up accounts. He is instead using multiple Google
sock accounts and email addresses in the format love#@thetruth.com (#
being a number)
Is unemployed after being sacked with cause from his one and only job
after just over 80 days
Fled the state of Florida, and now claims to practice in Georgia despite
having no admission priveliges in the State's hospitals
Runs a phony foundation with a total declared income of circa $200, the
ownership and contact details of which are obfuscated on its website
Makes failed prophecies concerning earthquakes with areas and dates,
which don't happen (remember the bible quotes about false prophets)
Performed a public attempt at 'exorcising' a Malaysian sock on usenet,
then denied doing it. He has recently reversed position again and admits
to practicing exorcism by usenet, proving himself a liar in the process.
Promotes a dangerous diet, with a million dollar guarantee that he
demands thirty dollars to access details of. This despite being
unemployed. His soliciting and spamming for donations looks to be
similar to the Nigerian Advance Fee Fraud, where victims pay money
upfront in the hope of coming into riches but find they have merely
bought into a lie. Part of his advice is to pour nail polish remover onto food.
Declares he has a cardiology practice despite posting night and day from
the same IP address (his home presumably) or a coffee shop internet cafe
Makes further false prophecies that we should now be all dying in a bird
flu pandemic. When these fail to happen, he does them all over again and
changes the dates. Nuclear war is another Chung spciality, which
naturally doesn't happen when he says it is going to.
Worships evil hatemonger Fred Phelps and will not denounce the acts of
Westboro's congregation. He even accuses someone with the name Phelps of
being Fred's son and refuses to accept he is completely wrong.
Uses the same patter as Pat Robertson, indicating his religious activity
is confined to watching cable TV. No evidence Chung has ever attended a
church.
Has a tendency to cyberstalk, particularly women. His wife fled some
time ago to another state, an act which Chung tries to pass off as "being
on vacation".
Frequently passes himself off as being qualified in areas such as
endocrinology, despite making incredibly fundamental blunders in his
'advice'. It is no wonder the Florida heart facility terminated him, and
has publicly denounced his version of events. Again archived on Google.
Don't forget the fake fast, where he didn't lose any weight, as well as
the infamous 666 stamping fiasco. His latest vile trick is spamming the
blogs of dying cancer patients and then crowing triumphantly when they
pass away.

Not if there has been a concomitant decrease in appetite.
Would be concerned that there has been muscle loss.

A good snack any time and especially at midnight if you are hungry is
a scoop of whey protein in a small glass of fresh fruit juice. It
will last you through the night and has no fat and very little
calories.

The fructose in the fresh fruit juice would be a concern because it is
not optimal for folks with insulin resistance (ie type-2 diabetics).
Wiser to know in your heart that "hunger is good" so that you will not
be bothered by it but rather you will sleep better with it.
Be hungry... be healthy... be blessed.

Suspect it has been a function of the amount of food you have been
eating.
