For me, the only way I did it was soft drinks, in particular Diet Mountain Dew. 0 calories, 0 fat, 0 carbs, 0 sugar, extremely low sodium. When I get hungry, I drink one and it keeps me full for at least an hour, plus it tastes good. Any diet soft drink will do it, I think DMD is the best though. Recently I switched to caffeine free DMD which tastes good also. You can get 5 cases for $10 or $11 when they're on sale.

It sounds stupid, but your appetite is really the biggest problem with losing weight (it was for me anyway), and if you can suppress it with something that TASTES GOOD, you might as well.

Wendy's grilled chicken sandwich + a small chili + diet soft drink is around 650 calories which is way low for fast food. Try that.
