    I've recently rediscovered Cream of Wheat with a pinch of brown sugar. So filling and 135 calories when made with water + tsp sugar.

    I have been having that same problem, I tried greek non fat yogurt works best for me. It is high protein and seems to last the longest for me.

    I like to make a smoothie with almond milk, frozen fruit, kale, and a protein powder. Tastes like dessert!

    1 6oz 0% raspberry flavor chobani greek yogurt
    1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
    1 packet truvia

    Mix

    So yummy

    This sounds soooo good! I'm definitely going to try. :)

    I like fish (my favorite is Tilapia) with sauteed onions and bell peppers. Load on the veggies, and you can stay full for a long, long time. I made an 8-oz. fillet with sauteed veggies in olive oil tonight and the meal was only 200 calories. I also like peanut butter smoothies and those Weight Watchers 100 calorie fudgsicles. :)

    Watch the raisins. They add up quickly to high calorie, high carb, high sugar......high high high

    Confetti Slaw/Rainbow Slaw

    Red Cabage (One head)
    Green Cabage (One head)
    2 Apples
    Carrots (3-4 large)
    Raisins
    Yogurt (1 pint)

    Shred the first four ingrediants. Mix together. Add raisins and yogurt and mix again. Yummy and very low calorie!

    Several have noted that nuts are high calorie, high fat. Many know that it is the good fat almonds offer, but did you know new studies have come out that suggest that nuts are not as high in calories as they are labeled. There are several articles out there, I know, more to confuse the dieter, but it is interesting and makes you feel a little better about the healthy snack. http://blogs.scientificamerican.com/guest-blog/2012/08/27/the-hidden-truths-about-calories/

    I'm seconding the rec for yoplait greek (either the peach or strawberry flavors, YUM). I'll get halfway through a container and remember its not actually dessert.

    I'm also a fan of mixing PB2 into greek yogurt (either vanilla or honey) for a nice PB dessert

    Pickles! I love pickles so much and you can usually find them for between 0 - 5 calories. If I'm feeling really hungry I'll have a pickle or two to satisfy my hunger and if I'm still feeling super hungry, I'll have a glass of water or maybe even some diet pop to get a taste of sweetness. :)

    I didn't like pickles until I found out the we're 0 calories. Mind you it only says zero and it's more likely about 3 but close enough either way and the sour kills your taste buds for anything else :)
