Just take a deep breath and remind yourself that Katy's behaviour is no 
reflection on you or your parenting.  Katy, little though she is, is her own 
person.  And how she behaves is up to her.  My son at 2 1/2 can't tell when 
he's hungry either - I wonder when that ability kicks in?  We have also just 
learned to recognize the signals - the grumpiness, etc.  He doesn't even ask 
for food - we have to offer it and then he's OK to eat...  Weird isn't it 
that recognizing hunger wouldn't be more innate...

Of course, after my 4 1/2 month old was up FOUR times last night, I'm also 
thinking it's weird that we have to "teach" our babies to sleep.  You'd 
think that something so crucial to growth and regular day to day functioning 
would be more natural...
