    No specific foods need to be eaten. Fruits, veggies and proteins will keep you full the most. Foods containing monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats are also good for your health. Fish has omega 3s which are great. And potatoes seem to keep me full.

    Pre-planning your meals and making snacks can help with getting your calories in.

    Looking at your diary (assuming it is accurate) you are not eating enough, at least for the past couple of days. You were at a little over 1000 calories the one day and right about 1200 the other. You need to eat at least the 1700. As to what will fill you, that is pretty personal to each individual.

    Edit:

    I went back even further, you have not been hitting your calorie goal. In fact there is not one day going back to the 22nd, where you have hit your goal. One was even down in the 700s. Your hunger is because of chronically eating too little.
