This is the phrase I adapted for myself from the T-shirt message "Pain is Weakness Leaving the Body" (Which is patently untrue - pain is the body saying ow-ow-ow you're doing that WRONG and it is DAMAGING ME!!!!)
I like my phrase as it does not make me angry (like the t-shirt), and is pretty close to true.

Hunger is Calories Leaving the Body
"You've been reading about arctic explorers," I accused him. "If a man's starving he'll eat anything, but when he's just ordinarily hungry he doesn't want to clutter up his stomach with a lot of candy."

I love this!
My father in law is an ex-marine and he has a T-shirt with the original saying but I like this one much better.

Nice! And true (sort of).
But I prefer to forget about those darn calories entirely and focus on how no-s helps me enjoy food more.
So how about:
"Hunger is the prelude to satisfaction."
or (adapting from Socrates):
"Hunger is the best appetizer."
If you don't ever let yourself get hungry, you don't ever really experience the pleasure of eating.
