A member asked:

How can i get full quicker when i eat a meal because after i eat my portion size meal i still hungry then i end up gaining weight and get bigger?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

That's a hard one...: Fatty foods tend to satisfy more but they are high in calories; low calorie, high fiber foods may fill you up but may not satisfy for long. You're going to have to use willpower to restrict portion size, make healthy food choices, ; avoid snacking or overeating if you're serious about weight loss.
