    Aren't apples a negative calorie food?

    Thats what I read on the internet.....

    LSD skittles are also negative calorie food.

    where do you find LSD skittles? i can only find skittle colored paper. it's very unsatisfying for the first 30 minutes, so i find myself eating too much.

    then the universe turns into a giant squid and i miss work

    bc its a carb! carbs always make you hungry....which is why restaurants serve bread before meals bc inevitably it will make you want more food...but there's good carbs and bad carbs...when dieting apples and oranges are a great snack!peanut butter adds protein and a craving fix too. keep eating them!
    Then why does your mum always say "don't fill up on bread, leave room for your dinner" eh?

    Its the sugar spike and it happens to me too. The protein in the peanut butter slows the effect of the sugar, leveling the spike. This is why I make the effort to never eat fruit alone. I will take a small orange with me today, but I will also have a 1oz cube of low fat cheese to eat with it.

    If I am hungry and eat an apple, in 20 minutes I am hungrier than I was before eating the apple! If I have some peanut butter or cheese with the apple I'm fine, I just can't eat an apple by itself. Any idea why?

    It kind of bugs me because I really like apples...

    The protein and fat in the cheese and nut butter adds satiety

    I was always told that apples have a lot of pectin and that's supposed to keep you fuller? Apparently because I believe it, it must be true, because I don't have that problem :wink:

    Maybe try adding a bit of protein--peanut butter, cheese--and that will help?

    This is what I do. I tend to eat an apple with peanut butter for my morning snack.

    Peaches make me hungrier...
    I can eat a peach for hours!

    Dude, with that tiny little tongue...it probably would take you all afternoon to properly eat a peach...
