Diet Satiety - Feeling Full While Dieting

Dieter Rob enjoyed a large breakfast: 1/2 a honeydew melon, 1 piece of toast with no butter and a cup of coffee with artificial sweetener. Two hours later, Dieter Rob is famished. Even the stale cupcakes in the office vending machine suddenly look tempting. What went wrong? Let's see if we can find out before Dieter Rob inserts those quarters and heads off to Diet Neverland....

While eating foods that are low in calories is a good thing when one is dieting, sometimes those " big eats with the little calories" don't last a long time. In Dieter Rob's case, the melon consisted mostly of water. Rob probably got that out of his system thirty minutes after he arrived at work while enjoying his first powder room break.

So what could Dieter Rob have eaten for breakfast that would last him through lunch time with zero hunger pains? A couple of eggs oatmeal an egg plus a couple of strips of bacon plus toast or an omelet? No - not all at once! We've got suggestions below for your reference, though.

Note that in a recent study a couple of eggs kept dieters satisfied for longer. It may be one of the hidden success factors in the low carb diet. Not to deflate this bit of good news, but the Diet Jury is still out on the effect that more than one egg per day has on one's health. And now for our list of breakfast foods that help your feel full:
