What fills you up that is healthy?

Anonymous
I am trying to be more mindful of my eating. Nothing seems to fill my stomach. I feel like if I had some go to meals, lunches, snacks, I would be satisfied and lose some weight. Help.

Apple with almond butter is my go-to afternoon snack.

Turkey wrapped in lettuce, with hummus. A wrap without the tortilla.
Shakes
Cottage Cheese
Quest Bars are good to keep it the car, along with snack packs of almonds.
Drink more water too.

How much almond butter?


Just the apple is a lot healthier

and a small handful of walnuts - for snacks

OP, do you know how to cook? I'm not trying to be snarky, but I think one of the main reason people seem hungry all the time is that they don't know how.

Just an apple by itself for a snack makes me hungrier than when I started, pairing it wjth almond butter helps me feel satiated.

You need to work on decreasing your appetite. Smaller portions... Otherwise you're screwed. How much does it take to fill you up??! You are not a gas tank. Eating is for nutritional purposes, not emotional ones. It sounds like you eat wayyyyy too much.

Cut up a million pieces of a fresh veggie you like. I go for green pepper, cucumber, celery are my favorites. I find them more filling and interesting than just plain salad. Dip in salsa if you like....

For a snack, I will eat about 1-2 cups of this- then will eat a small portion of anything else to bulk it up- a few whole grain crackers, nuts, cheese stick, hard boiled egg, Apple.

I think if 2/3rds of any meal is a veggie/fruit combo, the rest can be something fun & tasty. The fresh veggies leave me feeling fuller than cooked.

An apple isn't healthier than almond butter. A healthy diet requires a variety of nutrients, and almond butter is a healthy source of fat and protein.

Whether an apple alone or with almond butter is a healthy choice at the given moment depends on what else you've eaten that day, and how hungry you are.
