    Try Balut.......I hear it's great at supressing appetites.

    You're not going to get any pill support on MFP- most people here are doing it the old fashioned way...

    Aside from eating whole foods as everyone before me has just suggested you should BE PATIENT and try eating smaller meals. Hopefully some health nut will chime in here... (to verify accuracy and perhaps break it down better than me)

    Ever notice how the day after Thanksgiving or a vacation you're ravished the next day? Your smooth stomach lining in your muscle stretches if you eat too much in one sitting. Causing you to be hungry the next day. To feel hungry less often you have to literally shrink your stomach (intestine) by eating less at one time. Eventually your stomach will shrink to the size of your meals and you won't feel hungry as often.

    Good luck! :flowerforyou:

    This is so true!

    I literally put a chair and a trash can blocking my path to the kitchen after I eat my dinner. I have to really think about it that way, by stopping to move crap, and it stops me from boredom eating.

    Also, I took up cross stitch which engages my brain and must keep the appetite center busy plus I finished a present for my mother-in-law for Christmas which she loved. Win-win!

    Duct tape over your mouth.

    You made me laugh! :D
    Thank you!
    Maybe the duct tape will work...but in the mouth of the people that annoy me :P

    You really don't need a pill to do this. Just eat more protein in your diet. I have cut almost all carbs out of my diet and have been eating a lot of protein and I am rarely hungry even at very very few calories a day.
    I second this advice! I've cut ALL carbs from my diet and limited my calories to 1200 and have not felt one single hunger pang! Ketosis will kill any shred of an appetite!

    How many calories are you eating a day?

    1200 base, but i exercise around 300-800 calories and eat 50% of what i exercise

    Sounds good, can anyone give me some suggestions for high protein things for someone who doesn't eat meat. I am lacto ovo so eggs and milk are fine......

    Quest Bars. High protein, very high fiber, low in fat, very very little to no carbs, gluten free, all natural. They're made with both whey and milk protein though, and I don't know how you feel about whey..

    I don't think its the ketosis. Its the lack of insulin surge and subsequent carb crash that keeps the hunger away.

    Food works great for getting rid of my appetite, for 2-3 hours at least.

    I have found the same thing with food. Give it a try!

    A great tip on using this advanced technique is to consume the amount of food to just satisfy your appetite. Draw the line at just a portion of your normal quantity for a given meal.

    rent a trio of high school girls to say "ewe' and "that's so gross" every time you start going over on calories.

    I love this commercial!!!!
    Dont know that commercial... :(

    I'm taking this too. I've lost 30lbs. I know people will knock it but I really needed help. I've tried MANY times doing it on my own but failed. I've been on this about four months now and I'm creating good eating habits. No i'm not perfect (who is). But the stuff is amazing!!

    You're welcome.

    Why oh why did I give in and do this . . .

    I used to eat high calorie non-nutrious food and its crazy how easy it was to do that cause I was always hungry for the better food that I needed. Now that I eat better quality food (mainly lots more protien and less carbs.. mainly whole grains when I do).. I don't eat nearly as much before filling full.
