10 Filling Foods for Weight Loss

5. Potatoes

The time when dieticians encouraged getting rid of potatoes from the healthy diet is long gone – but it’s still all about how you prepare them. Sure, they are quite starchy but a healthy boiled, baked, or grilled potato (not fried) will satisfy hunger for quite some time. In fact, potatoes squelch hunger for about the same duration as brown rice or whole wheat bread—at far fewer carbohydrates than both. Potatoes also contain a ton of nutritious fiber and vitamin B6, potassium, copper, vitamin C, manganese, niacin, and phosphorus.
