At what point do you start enjoying the low cal, small portion foods?

I’m vegetarian (incl eggs) so my options really are limited, to make things worse I’m Indian grew up eating Indian food like 2-3 meals a day, and I like my food to be flavourful. I find it really hard to track calories when I’m making my meals, I try to use as many high protein, low cal foods as I can, I make tofu or paneer every now and then, kimchi fried rice with tofu or lentils/curry, salads, sweet potatoes etc and a serving or two of fruits as well.

I’ve been trying to be more mindful with my diet since the last year, aiming for ~1500 cals (probs should be ~1300 from what I’ve seen other people say) going to the gym fairly regularly (4-5x a week, strength training and cardio every now n then). I don’t really try to restrict myself lol because I binge hard if I do. So I give in to my cravings sometimes😭 honestly tho I’m just SO TIRED, I feel hungry and fatigued all the time, even after I’ve eaten a full meal I just want something sweet or savoury, I want food that tastes good I want samosas and pizza and pastas, and brownies and CAKE smh. Yk how it is, one slice isn’t ever enough ugh.

It’s so frustrating to be eating what looks like healthy food but probably isn’t cause of how it’s cooked or the portion size etc like damn how long do I starve myself for, I’m so desperate to lose this damn fat but also hungry AF.

I do need to improve my sleep and stuff, I’m trying on that end but idk what to do, I can’t fast, intermittent fasting just feels like a drag. I know this isn’t supposed to be easy, fair, I just hate it tho, I feel like eating anything just adds to my fat. I’m a short gal so it’s not really a vibe.
