    A handful of nuts and raisins help me or a apple with peanut butter! I usually need protein to hold me over for awhile! :)

    Almonds, popcorn is a good one I just put some in a brown baggie and microwave it, I also have a big salad with tiny amounts of dressing before dinner, that makes me full!

    I had my doubts at first, but I find a 1/4 cup of sunflower seeds quite filling. And if you eat a few at a time, it takes an eternity!

    I love to eat hummus and celery or any veggies. I carry around almonds, apple slices and almond butter. Hope that helps.

    Protein helps you feel fuller for longer.

    I go for soya yoghurts or soya dessert pots, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, nuts or peanut butter on a rice cake

    My go-to food is a light cheese stick. The protein and fat keep my stomach from growling until meal time.

    Peanut butter on granary toast is my ultimate favourite, I eat it every day, but usually just to get my calories up. Really filling :)

    Solid protein is well known to be the most filling thing you can eat. As others have already mentioned, lean meat and nuts are great for filling you up and keeping you full. In general, natural foods are going to be a lot more filling (and healthier) than processed foods as well.

    A bunch of raw broccoli dipped in a bit of light ranch is very filling. Protein shakes are very filling as well. I've noticed that I feel a lot fuller by eating more protein foods. :)
