If you're like me, when came to first counting calories was hard because you feel like your starving because your stomach has been stretched out and you're definitely not use to this.
There is one thing you can do help your tummy to feel full. Fiber!!
What to eat and how much?? Daily recommendation according to Food Pyramid 25g of fiber a day!!! Wow, I barely reach that myself.
Raw Non Starchy Vegetables:
Carrots are filled 3grams of fiber per serving (1oz) Best Part low in calories 35 calories.
3/4 cup Cauliflower 3 grams of fiber, 30 calories
Broccoli 1cup 3 grams of fiber, 30 calories
Tomatoes 1 cup 3 grams of fiber, 35 calories
Fresh Fruit:
1 medium Banana 3 grams of fiber, 60 calories
1 medium Apple 3 grams of fiber, 60 calories
How about them Apples??
I think you're getting the idea!!! The best part they are low in calories!!
Carbohydrates:
Whole Wheat bread look for breads that give 3 grams of fiber per Slice.
Whole Wheat / Whole Grain Barilla Pasta 3 grams of Fiber per Serving.
Whole Wheat Tortilla (Medium) 3 grams of fiber per serving.
WHOLE WHEAT!!!! Typically gives you 2 more grams of fiber per serving, than white flour. Beside Whole wheat is a complex carb and it's better for you digestion anyways.
So eat up!
