Can anyone recommended foods that are low in calories, quite low but also filling.

IrishMum

Any kinds of veg? I make a big pot of veg soup (usually either broccoli or cauliflower) and its easy to heat up and very filling?

Porridge,

I buy Turkey slices that are 100% Turkey breast and they are only 36 cals a slice.

Mixed salad with a low fat dressing is quite filling and very very low in calories.

Me too, but try & add some protein (chicken, ham) or a few pieces of pasta to help keep you feeling full. I love my own cajun chicken salad- chicken breast cooked in cajun spices, cabbage, a dsp of mayo, lettuce, tomato, carrot & a little onion sprinkled with black pepper.

Egg whites are good. You can add onions and stuff like that, and make a kinda omelette. If you have just egg whites and onion, it's uber low cal.

A nice one for if you fancy something sweet is freezing yoghurt from a big tub in an ice lolly making trey - makes you feel like youve had a treat and you can use low cal yoghurt so its only about 60 cals. Also i love making soup and a really filling one is butternut squash soup - just fry some onions, throw in the chunked squash add a tiny bit of water (lots comes out of the squash), throw in some nutmeg or paprika - you can also chuck in carrots or potato if you want, then boil well and blend - i sometimes put some greek yoghurt in as this would be a nice recepie with cream and the yoghurt does a similar thing. x

One of my favourite filling foods is Seeds of Change Spicy Lentil Soup - 180 calories per 400 gram pouch (if you're doing Food Focus it comes up much higher, I think it may be for an old recipe or entered wrongly). You can get it in Sainsburys and larger Tescos.

Oh, and I haven't succumbed yet, but if you get a chocolate or sweetie craving and fancy something a 2-finger Kit Kat (chocolate, mint and dark varieties) is only 107 calories for the whole bar
