In order to lose weight you have to be hungry all the time, right? Actually, not at all. Though portion control can often cause bouts of hunger at certain times of the day, a steady, healthy diet will result in feeling full and losing weight. The key isn’t just counting calories and fat, it about choosing foods that will fill you up and fuel you longer. One reason for feeling too hungry when you’re watching your calorie intake is eating too much food with a high glycemic index. If a dieter eats simple sugars like cookies or starchy food like mashed potatoes, their sugar goes up too fast resulting in high insulin levels. The result of high insulin level is a subsequent low blood sugar level, which results in hunger.

The solution is to eat foods with a low glycemic index like meat, beans, vegetables, eggs, cottage cheese etc. You can learn to eat right again and choose foods that will keep you on track.
