    Coffee is a wonderful appetite supressant. Or tea. Green tea is probably the best since you don't put cream and sugar in it.

    It seems like your days are half and half...half your day your eating great choices then the next half of the day you're eating bad food...even though fast food places have "healthy options" they are still not good for you...try to layoff the fast food..and also deff. Eat more protein and vegetables...try and stay away from a high amount of carbs because carbs turn into sugar making you more hungry throughout the day...it seems you are eating all the calories you should be but notice in your diary that the list of food to make up your 1200 calories isn't very long.eating better, healthier food lets you eat more...and always make sure to eat AT LEAST 1200 ... Never go under it puts your body in starvation mode. And one last thing, try and eat some low cal snacks in between your meals. Keeps you fuller throughout the day. :smile:

    I have started looking to the glycemic index when looking at the carbs i'm going to eat. I'm less hungry now between meals. Try eating like a diabetic and you will be eating more efficiently.

    Add 200-300g of salad (your spinach counts towards that) and 150-200g of low cal/carb (nutrient dense) vegetables everyday, then tell me you're hungry.

    More veg more veg more veg.

    You may well find, that hunger occurs a couple of hours after high gi stuff like cookies.

    I have been taking Saba it is an all natural appitite suppressant. I have found this to be very helpful. A girl I work with is selling it I can check on it foryou and give you some info if you would like..

    I just found Saba on Google shopping/Amazon for $60 per bottle (by Ace)... 60 capsules. Does this sound right to you? How much does your co-worker sell it for/how many per bottle? Thank you!
