[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] What are your dinner is typically like? Sometimes different foods will fill you up temporarily but then leave you feeling hungry 2 or 3 hours later. Chinese food is notorious for doing this and so is pasta unless you go whole grain noodles.

We are big fans of [b]skinny pop (Costco is your friend for this and other snacks foods), soft pretzels, whole milk, watermelon, nuts [/b]as pos dinner snacks.

Also, are you sure he'snot confusing thirst with hunger?[/quote]

OMG, this is hilarious![/quote]

The watermelon and skinny pop are silly.

Skinny pop is cheap at Costco and its perfect for grazing and eating it by the handfuls so it fills you up, but you don't feel gross. Love it as do my kids.

Watermelon is fine. Another good filler and hydrater. I'd think bananas are cheaper, fill you up more and not as messy.

OP asked for cheap and easy ways to fill her bottomless kids. Above suggestions are fine as well as other Pps suggesting microwavable taquitos, hot pockets, bagel bites, etc
Ymmv.

A soft pretzel can have almost 400 calories, so it is a decent suggestion, and nuts as a snack are high nutrient dense source of calories.[/quote][/quote]
