[quote=Anonymous]A lot of people have given some great tips. I'll tell you what has worked for me -- foods that are very low calorie, so I can eat a TON. I made a giant pot of vegetable soup every weekend. I keep it to all low calorie veggies -- celery, carrots, onions, tomatoes, cabbage, green beans, etc. Then I add one cup of whole wheat pasta and 2 cups of beans to the entire pot. It ends up being about 8 very large servings at about 125-175 calories per serving. That really fills me up for a few hours. I eat a lot of broccoli and cabbage and green beans. For protein -- egg whites are your friend. I eat 4 egg whites with a low calorie, whole grain pita (60 calories) for a 160 calorie breakfast that fills me up. I will have an apple mid-morning, which tides me over until about 1pm for my lunch of soup. For dinner, I roast a ton of veggies and have them with a very small portion of whole grains and a source of lean protein, like a chicken breast or tuna steak or some shrimp. If you eat like this, you're never hungry.[/quote]
