I'm still prone to overeating when I'm in a lifting phase and since those come and go in spurts, I've never been able to tame that.

On the other hand, I've been a 3+ hour a week cardio guy for a decade and when I first got started at 20+ mile a week running, I would eat away any caloric "gains" by 2x. I no longer have those issues and, like others have pointed out, I tend to lose my appetite for awhile after a run/ride. The harder the effort, the less appetite I'll have.



Yep. Cardio makes me less hungry for a short period of time after exercise, then ravenous later in the day. I don't notice any effects on hunger from lifting
