I was hungry all the time too when I ate super high carb. I switched around my macros a few days ago to 20% carb, 40%protein, 40% fat and I feel so much better- more full, and I'm eating under my calories rather than being so hungry and eating over them most days on the higher carb diet.

Salt and vinegar almonds Trader Joe's freeze dried strawberries Kashi Hearty hot cereal packets made into pancakes Mixing vanilla and mandarin seltzer water- tastes like orange cream soda

Thanks for the info guys- this is becoming very intriguing to me .

I just made a variation of this with nonfat greek yogurt, hershey's sugar free chocolate syrup and reduced sugar raspberry jam. So good! Fresh or thawed frozen raspberries would be good in it too.

Nuts, full fat yogurt, add avocado to meals.... just thought- granola and dried fruit too!

I would eat more meat (not deli meat though-so much salt), more fruit (bananas are a higher calorie fruit) and vegetables. Maybe some beans, eggs and nuts- you don't seem to be getting a lot of protein.

My favorite tea is Good Earth Sweet and Spicy Original. So good hot or iced! I also can't do caffeine, gives me anxiety. Bleh.

Love Zuzanna and Bodyrock! Although they do make me sore for days I know it's super intensive and worth it.

Definitely going to make these!

Sounds like the one I make, but I double up on the chili powder and add a tablespoon of cocoa powder too. Good stuff! Now who's got an awesome cornbread recipe to go with this?

I'll send you all the egg yolks I keep throwing out after I use the whites!

This sounds so good! I bet you could mix the tuna with a spoonful of cream of mushroom soup instead of the ranch, and sharp cheddar on top- kind of like tuna noodle casserole flavors.

Anyone?

Great information- thank you!

My new favorite combo is dried cherries, chevre cheese, chopped up fresh basil leaves with balsamic or red wine vinaigrette. Another good one is spinach, feta cheese, grilled blackened shrimp, sliced mushrooms with dijon vinaigrette. I second making your own dressing, so much better than anything store bought.

How about making herbal iced tea- there are some great ones out there.

Right now my favorite is Robyn's "Konichiwa B*tches".

I did a raw food "detox" for 5 days- OK but hungry the first day, second and third day I had a massive headache (detoxing) and was super tired, by the fifth day I was feeling fantastic. Broke my addiction to diet sodas and processed foods tasted awful for a while after that (of course I got used to them again- damn…
