Guest guest Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 Eating 100 % whole grains cereals, breads, rice, in muffins, etc will really help you feel full and for a long time. Also beans and mushrooms gives a nice filling feeling. I add them to my tossed salad, along with some crumbled up multigrain crackers. Cheese is also a good addition for giving filling you. Eat some good fiber foods in fresh fruits and veggies.

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 also try some of the meat substitutes. they really add a wonderful texture and flavor to meals. We love the Worthington/Loma Linda and Morningstar Farms ones.

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 I wonder if your body is getting sufficient protein, to start with. As for a good filler, grains, beans, legumes and other high fiber foods go a long way to taking care of that empty feeling, since they generally will stick around in your stomach a bit longer than low fiber foods. One dinner I like for its " stick to the ribs " filling is Spanish rice, refried beans and corn tortillas. But then, I could eat that particular dinner 5 nights out of 7. The other two nights I need to take care of my pasta needs. Congrats on your choice to go veggie! Jeanne in GA Quote
Guest guest Posted March 10, 2009 Report Posted March 10, 2009 Beans are really filling. I often eat a hearty chili or a bean soup with a salad. You'll be nicely full when you finish. - DJ ----------------------- Always remember: Today's mighty oak is simply yesterday's nut that held its ground... _____ On Behalf Of Vigilius Haufniensis Monday, March 09, 2009 1:49 PM Question on vegetarianism... I can do vegetables, and I am attempting to do so, but my main problem is that if I don't eat meat, I'm hungry like 30 minutes later. Whats up with that? Is there anything I can eat that would be more substantive? Quote
