What fills you up and keeps you satiated?

If you are eating /making a rice dish you need slice a hard boiled egg into your serving to fill you up. Even loading up my rice with veggies is not enough to fill me up. I also add walnuts to bulk up.

I have to eat a huge amount of oatmeal to fill me up, with bananas and blueberries or apples, , etc. A huge amount.

How bad is the smell and how difficult is prep?

Hummus, I eat a spoon and it helps me feel full. Then cabbage, I especially love it in salad. It also works well in a soup.
Butternut squash soup also helps me feel full.

I make steel cut and add raisins or cranberries, and I'm always hungry before lunch.

The raisins have sooo much sugar. Sub in a whole fruit and add 1 tbs of 1/2 and 1/2. Make sure to add vanilla extract, salt and cinnamon.

An egg on whole grain toast
A smoothie with Greek yogurt, protein powder, frozen berries, and water
An apple with peanut butter
Someone mentioned ground turkey. I started buying ground turkey and chicken to cook up and keep in the fridge when I need a protein fix

My oatmeal concoction for breakfast changes during the year. At this time of year it is an oatmeal flax seed mix from these guys - one packet https://www.naturespath.com/en-us/products/natures-path-foods/blueberry-cinnamon-flax-oatmeal/.

I add fresh blueberries, walnuts, and raisins. I also add what equates to a single serving of Icelandic yogurt, just from a larger container.

I have no idea what the calories are. That easily gets me to lunch, with coffee in between.

And, life doesn't end when you feel hungry some times. Even when you are fit and maintaining your weight, you come to realize that managing intake just becomes part of the process. That is how our bodies were designed to work in the first place. The only difference is you manage it now instead of looking around for your next meal.

Butter croissant and coffee with milk. 🤷‍♀️

Your calories are likely ~ 400, depending on how many walnuts you add. Wouldn't work for my caloric needs but plain oatmeal with some salt and bananas or unsweetened almond butter works for me for ~200. I snack on low Cal fruits and veggies until lunch, which is usually a soup with protein and veggies. I eat more for dinner.

Instead of adding plain salt to your oatmeal add some salted sunflower seeds for the extra health benefits and bulk.

I have a hard time eating oatmeal as an adult now. I grew up on porridge as a kid 👧 I do not know why but I have an image of Copperfield’s Oliver Twist.
