    It depends on if your body needs the calories or not (did you do strength training lately? maybe you need a bit more protein). Otherwise lots of veggies will fill you up for little calories. Sometimes I have days like that, but usually it's after I've done a lot of strength training and my body wants more protein!

    WARM water. Does the trick for me everytime. It makes you feel full quicker.

    Get some protein!! Sushi and the rice messes me up carb wise-I have turkey pepperoni and colby cheddar cheese sticks at work for the afternoon hunger attacks.

    I have a really bad habit of chewing ice so when ever i'm hungry i chew on ice. It beats eating something you'll regret and you're getting your daily intake of water at the same time

    Is there something wrong with just being hungry? If I know I have had enough to eat and I am still hungry, then I am still hungry. I usually forget about it once I get busy doing something.

    What do you eat when you are still hungry but you really don't want to consume a ton of calories? I think I'm going to make myself a veggie stir fry. And drink more water!

    a veggies stir fry sounds like an excellent choice. Just don't use too much oil.

    Def. protein. Maybe a bean salad with some boiled eggs, egg whites only if you are low on calories.

    Some form of protein. Chicken breasts are low calorie and keep you full. Also egg whites, (or whole eggs as I prefer). You can mix both into an awesome salad and feel full.

    Apples, chicken, a salad with lettuce, carrots, cucumbers, red onion and avocado and for dressing use lime and salt.
    keep drinking water. still hungry? eat a pear, banana, melon, some almonds, those items will fill your belly faster, and try to chew slowly it will send the message that you are full. anything high in fiber

    another good thing, a bowl of cereal: i like special K with berries and a cup of 2% milk and it makes me feel so full by the time I'm done ...

    try drinking water cold with a straw, and you can add some drops of lime or lemon..

    forget about the gum- it will make you more hungry and it will wake up the acids on your stomach

    Something with protein and a healthy dose of fat! Veggies are good and all, but not very satiating. A string cheese or some cottage cheese are a couple of my go-to's. Maybe quick cook up a chicken breast (you can buy huge frozen bags of them someplace like Sam's Club or Costco).

    I would suggest get your mind off it! Go for a walk, DON"T BRING FOOD! You can do this, and of course some days are better than others.

    Have a cup of tea. Or if your really hungry just eat another light meal, like a soup or have a bowl of oats with water or milk. You really shouldn't let yourself go hungry though as then this will become a diet and you're likely to give up. Even if you go over your calorie limit, tomorrow is another day and hopefully you won't feel as hungry. Also, you can always exercise to increase your calorie limit.
