    Hot tea is my go to when I'm itching to eat but I'm not truly hungary. I'd also suggest making meals out of fresh veggies, the sheer amount of food I can eat for not many calories is impressive because I make massive salads full of a wide variety of veggies, and maybe I'll throw an egg on to. Also, quinoa is filling...

    When I'm truly hungry, I eat something. But when I feel just snacky, I'll have a cup of coffee or a bowl of chicken broth or a small piece of cheese.

    Basically, if the answer to the question, "Am I hungry" is really, "I could eat..."

    Okay,

    If you put lemon in your water (fresh or juice) I also use a tad of stevia also. It will help slow the digestive system and keep you fuller longer also! I has helped me tremendously. Cut out the artifical sweetners they will do nothing but make you crave foods. I switched to Stevia and it has helped also!

    High fiber and Whole wheat is also GOOD!!!! Just my 2 cents for what it's worth : -).

    I would watch how many eggs you consume do to the cholesterol so try egg beaters there is only 60 calories in a half cup and you can add vegetables and make an Omelet. The best thing to fight hunger is fiber, so eat lots of foods containing fiber, whole grains, beans etc.. I like to make scrambled egg beaters with pinto beans, reduced/non fat cheese, salsa and 2 xtra thin corn tortillas for breakfast low in calories and it will definiatley carry you through to lunch

    my advice to this is aslo: take up a new hobby. if your hands are busy, that nagging voice is quieter. gardning, knitting, building cabinets - whatever sounds fun to you that you can do at home... cabinetry probably can't be done WITH the kids... but you know what i mean.

    i cannot stress enough that you must drink lots and lots of water....sometimes your body will act like it is hungry when it is actually thirsty. i also recommend foods high in protein and fiber. i take a fiber supplement that helps as well.

    What supplement do you use? I have the sugar free Fiber Choice tablets, but they seem to give me gas!

    High Fiber foods....Fruits, veggies, and whole grains! If you make a meal with this taking up 3/4 of the plate you will be satisfied :D
