    more protein and fat, less carbs! Carbs don't keep you full for very long!

    Thank you so much everyone! I am going to try the more protein and less bread approach. I once went on Atkins and was never hungry....but I don't really think that is a great long term eating plan so maybe just cutting down on the carbs and saying hello to more meat and eggs would be beneficial. Again...THANK YOU!:smile:

    Quick example:
    My lunch today had 3/4 lbs of beef (12oz) and 2 cups of veggies. All for under 800 cals.
    For got to add:
    I will not be hungry (not really) later when I power down dinner. I will eat leaner meat (chicken or fish)
    Another good one. 6 oz of chicken breast strips, foster farms, is only about 200 cals, and will have you quite full. Add in the veggies plus other... Still under 500 cals easy.

    Love this!!!

    Agree with much on here. Proteins and fats. Try raw almonds or all natural peanut butter (maybe on celery) for a snack when hungry. Helps me a lot! Getting the fat in there is key. Too much of a lean diet with no fats when working out will often leave me starving.

    Do you take a multi vitamin? Couldn't hurt.
