    One cup of california blend vegetables is only 30 calories and is rather filling.

    well some ideas are to add in a walk after dinner, drink lots more water and to call it an early night. I think it helps to have things like grapes or apples on hand so you can have them guilt free for around 100 calories. They can fill you up. I think it takes balance of more exercise to let you eat more

    Here is a clue, why you feel hungry? maybe answering that question you will get your answer, ironic eh?

    If you feel hungry your body is telling you that it did not get the nutrients needed to run properly, in other words, the food that you eat is nutritionally deficient.

    This is why you can eat a lot of some foods and you feel that you can get more. When I go to McDonald's I can eat "2000 calories" in one seating, but if I eat 3 eggs with some veggies cooked in butter I feel full. It does not only happen to me.

    When we swallow our food our body is "checking" what does it contain and then sends the signal "ok, this is enough", when it doesn't find it is going to ask for more. Refined, processed foods do not have any nutrition, despite of what the label says.

    If I am *very* hungry, I will got get a yogurt or maybe some carrots to nibble on. If I am just a little hungry, I will drink some water and go either read a book or whatever to get my mind off it and eat in the morning. (Though this morning I woke up at six cuz I was so hungry! Lol)

    Well like I said, its such a rare occurrence and its not affecting my weight I'm not worried about it. We are talking once, maybe twice a month. I wasn't asking for help, I was just curious what others do. :)

    Necroposting? Why?
