   Putting off your favorite foods isn’t nescecerry, but instead of buying a box of cookies just buy one. Don’t buy offers just for the sake of it either.

   PROTEIN! Eat protein in every meal it is proven to be more filling then fat or carbohydrates. Pick leaner meats like chicken/ turkey/ fish over red meats

   If you need to snack then have low cal options like: (these also help fill you up at meal times.)
   Frozen vegetables
   Low fat yogurt
   Bags of pre-washed greens
   rice cakes
   Oats
   Canned diced tomatoes
   Canned beans / pulses
