    Oh... also - Asian style chicken lettuce wraps with peanuts. The more protein you get in the longer you will stay full!

    Healthy Choice has a low carb bread, as well as a sugar free bread. i use the sugar free. Its really good. I was buying it for myself but now I have to buy it for the family they like it better.

    1. Quaker Quick Grits (1/4 cup dry (130 cal) + 1/2tbsp light butter with canola (25 cal)) = 3/4 grits
    2. Polenta (1/4 cup dry corn meal (110 cal) + 1 tsp chicken bouillon (10 cal) = 3/4 cup polenta
    3. Idahoan Instant potato packets Butter & Herb just add water. Yields 2 cups at 220 cal/cup
    4. Look for 90 cal english muffins
    5. Flatout wraps are 90 cal each
    6. Quaker Instant Oatmeal (Maple 160cal, Cinnamon Spice 160 cal, Cinnamon Apple 130 cal, Original 100 cal)
    7. Quaker Instant Oatmeal Low Sugar (Maple 120 cal)

    Personally, the oatmeal and mashed potatoes are the most effective at curbing my hunger.

    I eat lots of protein, and that keeps me full longer than carbs do. Maybe try eating more protein? Or sometimes if I'm craving carbs I eat quinoa or couscous...both of which are really good and filling.

    I switched to multi grain sprouted bread ( you can find it in most Healy food stores). It has 15 carbs per slice and 9 grams if protein. Supper yummy. Whole grain brown rice, and whole grain pasta. I stay full all day and all of these things offer a better alternative than their very white and starchy counter parts. My boyfriend protested for a bit, but after he tried it and realized that he stayed more full he has converted. Hope that it helps.

    Porridge - made with oats and water - 95 calories a bowl and fills you up. Add golden syrup for sweetness at 45 calories.

    I've also been enjoying oat bran "pancakes." (2T plain yogurt, 2T oat bran, 2 T egg substitute, then seasonings or cinnamon, depending on whether I'm making a sweet or savory pancake.)

    If you're looking for substitutes, the Dukan Diet folks have worked out high protein/fiber substitutes.

    Check out genkiusainc.com or go to google and type in skinny noodles official site, or you can go to your local whole foodes store in the cooler section and try Shirataki noodles. Hope this helps!
