Do you get hungry before lunch? How about beore or after dinner? Maybe its not that you haven't eaten enough, but that you haven't eaten the right foods to keep you full.


If you are always feeling hungry, its a good time to evaluate your eating habits and track your fiber intake. The easiest way to feel full without consuming too many calories is to make sure you are getting enough fiber in your diet.

Fiber takes longer to chew, your body can't digest it and it helps carry calories out with it, making it possible for you to avoid feeling hunger pains all day and still lose weight.

Foods rich in fiber are the best and easiest way to boost your intake and feel full longer.

High Fiber Foods:

  • Whole wheat products
  • Oatmeal
  • Fruits- raisins, apples, oranges, berries, mangos and more.
  • Vegetables- broccoli, spinach, green leafy vegetable and more
  • Beabs
  • Peas
  • Almonds
  • Flaxseed

Don't worry if you are still having trouble getting enough grams of fiber from your diet alone. There are many products available to help boost your fiber intake and curb hunger. There are products you can spinkle over other foods, pills, mixes to add to water, etc.

Start adding fiber to your diet gradually. Aim for 25 grams as a starting point, 35 grams for your goal and continue to add fiber to that daily number as your body adjusts.
