I've decided to go on a lifestyle change. In other words, a diet that I don't plan on ever giving up. My family has a history of heart disease and heart problems, so me being overweight is scary. I also hate how my body feels so out of shape (4 years ago I was about 60 pounds lighter).
I want to start out by changing my caloric intake since that's one of the biggest keys to losing weight. Here's my problem: I'm a larger than average guy and I have a fucking massive appetite. Right now, I could consume 6,000 calories per day with 0 activity and not feel sick. I've already started lowering portions of the food I eat and eating food that is low(er) in calories, but I'm about to go crazy here.
Why? Because I'm constantly fucking hungry!! Like hungry to the point where I can't concentrate on anything. What I eat for lunch and supper isn't enough to keep my mind off of hunger. I need foods that have lower calories but are more filling, because what I'm doing right now isn't working very well. I'm consuming about 2,000-2,500 calories per day right now.
I'd like a snack-type substance because I'm usually OK at meal-time. I have Dysguesia, so a large majority of fruits are out of the question due to their extremely rancid taste to me. My brother suggest rice cakes so I'll probably try those. Is there ANYTHING else I can eat between meals that is filling and doesn't have 500 calories??
