Make me full.

Loads of steamed veggies keep me full for a long time. I mix cauliflower, broccoli ,carrots and it tastes good. Broccoli fills me nicely for a while !

A serving of oatmeal with a Clementine comes in at around 180 cals and holds me over for a bit

A protein shake can fill me up for a few hours for sure !

A serving of Greek yogurt is @ 140 cals . you can add in some fruit slices maybe if you'd like.

chicken breast and broccoli and cauliflower all roasted in the oven.

Popcorn is my saving grace when I need volume without a ton of calories.

Try 100-200g of oats then add double that of milk/water. Microwave that beast and go for broke. Add protein powder and/or a spoon of peanut butter. It's not scarce on calories, but the macros are bretty good and it's guaranteed to make you full.

this cheese thats kinda like a yogurt called quark.. the brand i found in whole foods was elli. It has only 80 calories and they have delicious flavors like red velvelt cupcake and lemon.. it also has a ton of protein, i think 15grams. Whenever im feeling really hungry out of my meal times i eat one of it and it fills me up

Learn to be satiated, not full...

But personally I like a nice piece of salmon, roasted potatoes, and a *kitten* ton of veg.

I don't want to feel stuffed. Here is the way it usually goes though, oatmeal in the morning 7am, snack around 9:30 is usually an apple, orange, or the like. Lunch about noon that is reasonable, then at 2:00 I am starving the rest of the day and nothing makes the hunger subside. What in the world makes a body do that?

Before I was counting, I would just eat something and not care, but I thought after a few weeks of being aware it would get easier. Really makes the second half of the day difficult to concentrate on anything else.

I'm the same way; I've started getting to eat smaller meals and just load up the veggies. I've found some 100 calorie bagels, so that's a good morning snack with some cream cheese. This morning I had a hard boiled egg with my coffee which kept me for a couple hours, then I had some oatmeal with fruit. That kept me until lunch, when I made homemade soup (veggies with kidney beans, sort of a minestrone without pasta). I just had a 100 calorie sized thing of guacamole with a couple mini pitas, and for dinner will have a grilled cheese sandwich with the leftover soup and maybe a salad. It helps me to plan my whole day on advance, so I know what I'll be able to budget in. I'll have some fruit in between meals to help with my sweet cravings, which can be intense.

I've avoided rich foods since Lent started about 13 days ago and since then my appetite has fallen off. I sometimes forget to eat dinner. For that reason consider not eating refined carbs like sugar and flour. I eat lots of dried fruit because I can't eat the fresh fast enough and nuts. Had the last tablespoon of unsweetened peanut butter with chili and garlic right from the jar last night.

Today for lunch I had 2 oz of turkey, 1 oz of American cheese and 2 oz of avocado and made roll ups. Very satisfying.

I've been munching on cucumber sticks as an afternoon snack. It seems to fill me up for a while.

Protein keeps me full.
Protein shake or an egg or yogurt for breakfast.

Can u eat nuts with your apple or pnut butter with your apple?

Low fat string cheese is a nice snack that keeps me full, until a meal.

Fish always keeps me full.

How many calories per day are you eating when doing this?

This is the key question. If your calories are set to a reasonable loss & you are eating them all (with accurate logging) then hunger can probably be countered with better allocation of cals throughout the day.

For me the only foods that do this are potatoes and oatmeals.
