Fiber is Key

I've found that fiber is the key to fullness. I have been drinking the Renew Fiber 35 shake to substitute a meal (lunch or dinner) and eat l/2 of the Renew fitsmart bar for snack and then another l/2 fitsmart bar for evening snack. Breakfast is generally an egg white with 2 slices of turkey bacon, slice of tomato on Thomas whole wheat english muffin and a regular dinner. The fiber makes me full during the day so I won't eat so much at night. It's been working and I've found that I've dropped inches and a couple of pounds in my first week of doing this.

I agree fiber is definitely one of the keys to feeling full. The only problem I have is using unnatural fiber (FiberOne, etc) makes me bloat and gassy. I was lucky enough to be told about some great ways to get more fiber in my diet. Broccoli, many berries especially blackberries, and milled or ground flax seed. You can add that to so many things and it doesn't change the taste. Look into some of the natural ways as well. I get 25-30 grams of fiber if I eat all the stuff I should. And my stomach isn't bloated nor am I gassy.0
