Staying On A Diet?

Question: I'm trying desperately to shed some kilos before my wedding, but I'm having trouble dieting on the right foods -- I'm never full after I eat. Do you have any suggestions?

Answer: by The Knot

Hunger may mean that you are choosing the wrong “right” foods. Some low fat fare isn’t enough to fill a bird. Start by taking a long, hard look at what’s on your plate. You should be seeing lots of vegetables. Have a salad or some steamed broccoli, cauliflower, or spinach every day with lunch and dinner. Adding extra veggies will increase the quantity of food in your stomach without adding a lot of extra calories. Also, some foods are naturally more filling than others. Try to include fruit — oranges, grapes, apples — baked potatoes, and fish in your meals. These low-cal foods definitely pack an extra punch when it comes to filling you up.
