Atkins protein bars have worked best for me--- helped me surpass my goal and sustain it.

Turkey and cheeses work well for me.

Any kind of cheese but particularly sharp, hard cheeses, mixed nuts, and any kind of meat or poultry. Fish doesn't seem to last as well as beef or poultry.

A serving of turkey pepperoni (roughly 17 pieces), 1.5 string cheeses, and a handful of goldfish crackers. For some reason, that quick-snack combo has worked for me for over a year now. Often, it takes less of that combo to do it.<P>If I have a couple of minutes, it's a cheese omlette made with egg beaters, with mushrooms added if I'm really hungry, without if I'm not.

Um, that's one-and-a-half string cheeses. Not 1-5, or fifteen.<P>Durn. WLS is not helping my eyesight one bit.

Well, believe it or not, Beef Jerkey. I'm not a big fan of it. But, I know if I'm having a hungry day, I can nip it in the bud with some beef jerkey.

Beef Jerky is my hunger stopper. My doctor says most any protein will satisfy your hunger but beef jerky works well for me. I use my kitchen shears to cut it into bitesized pieces and put it in little manageable sized bags and keep it in my desk drawer at work.

Beef jerkey, chili, and oatmeal work for me.

Any foods high in protein last longer - but you really should work on that head hunger. Ignoring it and eating will only make you sick and slow your weight loss. If you must eat, munch on healthy foods, like fruit or whole grain crackers (triscuits). That's what I do when I want to munch. Good luck!

Denser foods stay longer. So, of course, any dense protien like already mentioned, but I find that lightly cooked veggies stay with me awhile. Things like brocolli, string beans, spinach leaves and such work well for me, too. Also, a Zone Perfect protein bar stays awhile.
