Eating like this can make you feel like you have more energy, and some people may also find that they get fewer hunger pangs too.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s sort of a two-part equation. First of all, <strong>cut down a bit on foods that can play havoc with your blood sugar<\/strong> (for example, sugary drinks, sweets, biscuits and cakes), and don&#8217;t have them on an empty stomach. Keep them to smaller amounts and have them just after meals.<\/p>\n<p>Secondly try <strong>one or more of these ideas<\/strong> that could help you feel fuller:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Have breakfast, even if you don&#8217;t normally have it (porridge, eggs, etc)<\/li>\n<li>Eat an apple before your lunch or dinner<\/li>\n<li>Have a decent sized portion of protein foods with at least two of your meals (eggs, thick Greek yoghurt, pulses, fish, meat, vegetarian alternatives)<\/li>\n<li>Blend chunky foods into a puree to make a smooth soup<\/li>\n<li>Have a small glass of water before eating<\/li>\n<li>Eat tiny, healthy snacks between meals (fruit, veg sticks and hummus, or a few nuts)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Notice how you feel throughout the day. How are your usual mid-morning hunger pangs? Do you get your standard mid-afternoon slump?<\/p>\n<p>If there&#8217;s anything that seems to be especially helpful for you, consider eating in this way more often.
