    Ever try a low carb diet? (Sorry I couldn't read every response to see if someone mentioned this already) I don't get as hungry on my low carb diet because I'm allowed to have a decent amount of fat, the fat and protein stabilizes your blood sugar, you feel full longer, you don't have ups and downs with hunger as much. My snacks could be a hard boiled egg, or cheese. . of course if I'm at home there are more choices for what to eat.

    My friend and I are eating Kelp Noodles (at home) because they kind of help fill you up but they have barely any calories or carbs, no sugar.

    1. Greek Yogurt
    2. Vitatops/Vitamuffins
    3. Fresh Veggies (baby carrots are my favorite)
    4. String Cheese
    5. Protein Shakes
    6. Potatos (usually in the form of hash browns cooked with spray olive oil)
    7. Spray Butter
    8. Spray Salad Dressing
    9. Laughing Cow Cheese
    10. Apples with PB2 (PB2 is basically a peanut butter replacement and it is fabulous!)
    11. Bananas when I need sugar NOW!
    12. Cereal for Dinner (fills you up and the carbs keep you going/full just long enough until bed-time)

    grains that are least processed are the most filling. the more processed a food it the quicker it is digested and the faster between meals your become. steal cut oats are awesome to keep you full!

    A very filling breakfast for me is one that includes eggs -- especially omelets! Just two eggs, loaded with green peppers, onions, mushrooms, spinach, and a bit of cheese. To mix things up, I'll sometimes have an english muffin with peanut butter and banana, or oatmeal with fruit.

    Snacks -- fruit, veggies and hummus, rice cakes, kashi granola bars, cheese strings, greek yogurt with fruit.
    Depending on how hungry I am, I may have two out of the three above, equalling in 100-200 calories.

    Lunch -- wrap with veggies, cheese, hummus or mustard.

    Snack -- see above!

    Supper -- Anything goes.. stirfry with rice, veggie chicken breast with tons of vegetables, soup, spaghetti squash with spaghetti sauce and veggies.

    I find if I load up on veggies I'm satisfied/fuller longer. Protein also helps with this too!

    breakfast ...1/2 cup berries while I am making my omlette ...

    omlette .. ... made with one whole egg, one egg while , chopped red onion, 2 chopped mushrooms .. when done topped it with 2 tbs salsa

    lunch ... fine sliced.... 1/2 cup of jicama (really love this), medim carrot, little red onion, red cabbage .. tossed with 1 or 2 TBS braggs apple cider vinegar then topped with 1 Tbs fresh ground flax seed and 1 Tbs sunflower seeds

    snack 1 oz low fat string chhese

    dinner .. 4oz very lean peppercorn pork tenderloin, large portion fresh string beans and about 1/2 cup quinoa

    and about 8 raw almonds just before I go to bed ... find that my weight loss has improved this way .. maybe makes my metabolism work when sleeping and I am sure the added fiber helps

    I take vitamins and probiotics and drink tons of water

    my question is this .. I have been way under my calories suggested ... but I am eating really good food .. so do I have to eat caories for the sake of calories????

    I always drink water first whenever I feel hungry. That takes care of it at least 50% of the time. If that doesn't work, I sip hot tea. But, I also always have a snack between meals which is part of the plan. Usually almonds or pb on toast or plain yogurt with fresh raspberries (when they're in season). Good luck.

    Calories are a unit of measurement, which measure energy. Energy your body needs to function. Your body requires X amount of calories (energy) to keep running. So it's not calories for the sake of calories; it's calories for the sake of a healthy, fit body.

    Almonds are one thing that helps to curb my hunger. I also noticed that if I eat one hard-boiled egg in the morning with my oatmeal or cereal, my appetite is more manageable throughout the day and it doesn’t take as much to make me feel full. Also, what kind of job do you have? I work at an office where I sit most of the day and there are times when I mistake hunger for boredom because I’m doing the same things day in and day out. On the weekends I’m able to keep myself busier to where all of the sudden I remember “Oh yeah I better eat something soon”.

    When you buy the chiobani yogurt make sure you look on the front of the yogurt. Some are made with 0% ( fat free) milk, 1% and 2%. Just in case your wondering why some you eat are thicker than others.
