If you find yourself constantly hungry and struggling not to snack, you might be suffering needlessly. Believe it or not there are some foods you really can have as much of as you want of -- "free" foods, so to speak. Here's a quick list of calorie-free (or guilt-free at least) foods to curb your cravings and hunger pangs:- Hot tea (with Splenda if you like it sweet). The volume and warmth will satisfy, plus you'll get the awesome benefits of the antioxidants and other properties tea has become so famous for.
- Water. Same principles as the tea in that the volume will help you feel fuller, plus it can suppress the appetite and help your body metabolize fat. Try drinking a big glass of water before you snack -- you'll eat less.
- Egg whites. As long as you make them without loads of butter or other additions they're low in calories, high in protein, and have no fat/no cholesterol.
- Crunchy veggies like broccoli, cauliflower, brussel sprouts. Again, as long as you pass on the fattening toppings and ranch dressing you can't really overdo it or eat too many!
- Citrus fruits and berries. Very low in calories and full of necessary nutrients and vitamins.
- Sugar-free Jell-O. Easy to make, sweet, and very low-cal!
