Eggs and weight loss

I always have a protein/carb combination for breakfast.  If I don't, I find my energy and eating for the day is subpar.  So I usually eat eggs (egg/egg white) for the protein part.  I've started to get a bit bored with eggs so I decided to start eating smoked salmon in the morning as an alternative (not all the time because of mercury but as an alternative.)  I've noticed on the days I eat eggs, I'm satiated.  On the mornings I eat salmon, I am STARVING by 11am.  I eat a big enough portion of salmon so what gives?  What is the mystery of the egg/energy/satisfaction?  Anyone have any ideas?  

It's interesting to note that I also read a study that those that had 2 eggs in the morning ate 360 fewer calories over a 36 hour period than those that had an equivalent portion of protein of yogurt.

Is the egg magic?
