    If you will increase your protein during the day, you wont get as hungry at night. High protein/low carb dinner keep me full til bed.

    almonds, light string cheese are my fav snacks!

    I was going to say baby carrots too! I find them very filling. Also, Orville Reddenbacher (sp?) 94% Fat Free Smart Pop Popcorn. You can have the whole bag of butter flavor for 120 calories and the kettle corn flavor for 140 calories. Crystal Light also has a hunger satisfying drink mix (strawberry banana flavor I think) that is 30 calories and actually is pretty satisfying. Hope this helps!

    I use my WW filling food list even though I don't do WW any more. Here is the link:

    I also vote for popcorn! It is a lifesaver for me when I just need to have more than a few bites of something.

    For me a big salad of green leaf lettuce with tomatoes, cukes, carrots, feta cheese and lite dressing; can add a little broiled chicken or steak for protein. Can carry me for many hours.

    Fiber fills you - protein fuels you.

    There are cereals and even yogurts with fiber now. For a fresh alternative look at this list:

    List for high protein foods (for some additional ideas):

    Good luck!
