If you find yourself snacking more often than not, add foods that will fill you up.
You could be lacking fibre, high fibre foods digest more slowly, keeping you more full for longer.
You might not be eating enough satiating foods, if your not adding protein or fats you may notice that you feel hungry an hour later or so.
Sometimes when we are always hungry, itโs because we arenโt finding a good balance with macronutrients. If we donโt consume enough foods that fill us up, such as protein, carbs and fats, our blood sugar can decrease at an abnormal rate, causing us to feel hungry and crave more sweets & snacks.
Hereโs a list of foods that fill you up
#1 Avocados - one medium avocado contains 10 satiating grams of fibre and is rich in essential fatty acids!
#2 Nuts - Are rich in omega 3 and 6 fatty acids, are full of weight supporting nutrients like calcium, and contain all three macronutrients protein, carbs, and fats.
#3 Fish - High protein and omega-3 content in fatty fish, such as tuna or salmon, is a great way to keep hunger at bay.
#4 Eggs - Are a great source of high-quality protein.
#5 Oats - Is one of the most filling foods to prevent hunger.
#6 Vegetables - You canโt go wrong with extra veggies. Vegetables are rich in fibre which adds bulk to meals.
#7 Berries - Natureโs candy. When youโre searching for what to eat when you are hungry, while also satisfying your sweet tooth, reach for fibre-rich fruits like berries! Berries are filled with antioxidants, phytonutrients, and are rich in fibre, helping to slow down digestion and keep you feeling full for longer.
#8 Chia Seeds - If youโre looking to boost the fibre content of any meal, add a sprinkle of chia seeds. One of the most filling foods to prevent hunger! One tablespoon of chia seeds provides 4 grams of fibre, 2 grams of protein, and less than 60 calories!
Other things to consider.
Its not always about food, it could be that youโre not getting enough sleep or your not drinking enough water throughout the day.
Also eat every 2-4 hours. Keep a food diary so you can see when you are most hungry throughout the day. Make healthy swaps.
