10 Filling Foods for Weight Loss

3. Oats

There is nothing better than oats – they are tasty and filling and will leave you satisfied and happy for longer. Oats stall mid-morning snack attacks because they absorb liquid (i.e., water, milk, almond milk) like a sponge—meaning you’ll eat fewer calories but feel full until lunchtime. Choose original, wholegrain oats instead of the quick cooking options. They take much longer to work their way through the digestive system, which compared to the quick fix you’ll get with most breakfast cereals, quells hunger pangs and regulates blood sugar so you’re satisfied for much longer.
