You can eat foods you love and still lose weight–without sacrifice, and without being hungry.  Eating balanced meals and snacks throughout the day is one way to control your hunger. Skipping meals will probably cause you to be so hungry by meal times you’ll either slip an extra snack in, or binge at the next meal.It is also important to try and balance the protein, carbohydrates and fat in your meals. For example, at breakfast you can consume eggs, whole grain toast and margarine. For a snack you may consume fruit, nuts and yogurt. For lunch or dinner meals you can have a portion of lean meat, a side of high fiber veggies, and a good starch choice (i.e. baked potato with skin, brown rice, or corn). This will help keep you full until the next main meal. If you don’t select high fiber foods, consider consuming fiber supplements such as Diet Center Fiber Capsules or Fullfill Drinks. Also, don’t forget your water! Water has natural appetite suppressing qualities, which is one reason why fruits and vegetables help you feel full (they consist primarily of water).In order to hold back your hunger until it’s time to refuel your body, it’s important that you consume a balance of nutritious foods when you do eat. Think of it as filling your body with a premium blend of fuel that will keep your body running at peak energy levels and burning fat efficiently.
