    CICO is a nice tool to lose weight but it has little to do with appetite, or binge eating.

    One thing I can recommend is fruits and green veggies. Basically things that have large volume but small amount of calories.

    Fiber. Slow digesting foods. Win.

    I think he's saying a calorie is not a calorie in terms of satiation only.

    Precisely.

    Listen: a calorie = calorie in terms of unit of measurement for energy.

    But when it comes to satiation, think about it this way: I'd like someone to do the following and tell me how they feel after two weeks spent following two different diets, consuming the EXACT SAME AMOUNT OF CALORIES EVERY DAY:

    1) Diet A) Whole foods, a good balance of carbs, protein and fat, low GI carbs and plenty of fruit.

    2) Diet B) Nothing but Twinkies and Ho-Hos'.

    Then come back here and tell me which diet made you feel better, less hungry, and fueled your workouts better.

    Who thinks Twinkies will win? Raise your hand?
