Yes, salad and pasta just isn't going to "cut it".

On the other hand, one meal a day of several scrambled eggs, cheese and bacon will last until the next day. Same satisfaction with a couple bacon cheeseburger patties or similar fatty meat variations. When you are eating one meal a day, you'll eat sufficient quantity then and won't have to concern yourself with worrying about a silly window.

Fear of Fat and meat is probably the biggest myth which has brainwashed people and sets them up for failure with too many Carbohydrates.

The lowered insulin level while fasting is similar to the lowered insulin levels while eating few carbohydrates.
