Berries
Berries are high in fiber, which can keep you full longer. Plus, they tend to be sweet. This means berries can help satisfy your sweet tooth.
Beans
Did you know that beans are actually a vegetable, a protein, and a great source of fiber? One cup contains 12 grams of fiber, just 4 grams of fat, and 15 grams of proteins.
Soup
Broth-based soup (not cream-based) is filled with healthy vegetables and water, which fills you up with the fewest possible calories. Try a healthy chilled summer soup, like gazpacho.
Watermelon
Foods that are high in water content fill you up more thoroughly, Bonci says. Watermelon is a great example of a raw, low-calorie fruit that is both water and nutrient-rich.
Sweet Potatoes
Baked sweet potatoes are naturally sweet and flavorful, so you don’t need to add a lot of seasoning – which can save you calories. As a bonus, sweet potatoes contain healthy-diet loving potassium, beta carotene, vitamin C, and fiber.
Fish
One of the best sources of protein is fish. Most fish is low in fat, and the exceptions usually have a healthy form of fat — omega-3 fatty acids, which help protect your heart.
