If my memory of physiology courses serves me right, your stomach has fat receptors which send signals to your brain relative to being satiated. From what I remember, it takes a few minutes for this response to be triggered, and in my case, since I eat so fast, I've probably over eaten by that point.

Short answer: yes, there is a biological response to fat.
