Filling food choices?

I am curious what others eat when they are looking for something filling? Especially when you are coming towards the end of your calorie cap (I am trying to stay at 1,200cal per day)?

    Sometimes I go for Luna Bar and a big cup of water.

    Other times I just make sure I do some exercise when I get home from work. That way I give myself more wiggle room.
  • Popcorn! . Put 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil in the pan, heat it up and then add the popcorn. it is filling and full of fiber and satisfies that crunch urge

    protein - every time - some low fat cottage cheese, yoghurt, small portion of meat, egg, or even just the egg whites....

    Zucchini! :D I just make a stir fry of zucchini, onions, and mushrooms.
    It's a massive pan of food for less than 50 calories, I love it(: and you can add whatever seasonings you want!

    Or you can put it in a paper bag in the microwave and save calories on oil ;D
    plus you don't have to wash a pan. :P

    I like 100 calorie kettle corn. I use it in my lunch instead of chips but it is good anytime. I also satisfies any "munchy" craving because of the hand to mouth repetition (used to smoke too)

    like the others said, just find some high fiber foods! You can pretty much throw some Chia seeds into whatever your eating/drinking and that will help you stay full
