for your sweet tooth, get frozen fat free cool whip and mix choc. syrup, it tastes just like choc. ice cream...
I'm the queen of this! I used to make large "Stir-fries". I would spray a pan with pam and drop a little bit of water in it. Then take whatever veggies you prefer and sautee them. I would season the huge mix of veggies with low sodium soy sauce. Very filling! Also steamed spinach, broccoli, and cauliflower are very tasty.
Everyone's suggestions above are absolutely right!
Another thing you can do before eating any of the above terrific, healthy volume foods is to take two tablets of fiber with 8-12oz water 45-60 minutes before each meal.
The fiber/water combo makes you feel full while adding 0 calories.
Good luck to both of us!
ll thanks for the tips everyone! I had some strawberries today... mmm
the problem with cereal for me is... one serving is never enough.. i always go back to the box for more... it did help to preportion the servings, cause then i was embarrassed to go back for a whole other serving... i might go back to doing that so i dont overeat and have... say... 4 servings (it has happened!! many times)
^ Yes spaghetti squash is the best!! you can add a little light butter or olive oil and garlic or a little spaghetti sauce--its sooo good!
I also like scrambled egg whites with lots of hot salsa--the spicy salsa always fills me up faster.
What is the texture of spaghetti squah like? I gave up pasta years ago, much to caloric and not worth it. I love grilled squash and zucchini, does it taste similar?
I was going to try those shirataki noodles, but the whole "fresh in a water pouch" concept turned me off.
