Ho lordy, Thats a good suggestions there and someone mentioned steak as I haven't had that in a long time. Must get some.
So I am off to the bucher and see if there is any T bone or serloin at 2 inch thick. We gotta eat and top quality stuff too.

OMG, I Loooove beef jerky! It's a great snack. I love pizza, too, but unfortunately... And rice. Love rice.

I also love Indian food. Curry, tikka masala, vindaloo, naan, heaven help me!

Now if I'm honestly trying to be nice and not very, very naughty, I'll have a s/f Jell-O pudding snack and crumble a graham cracker on top. Sort of like pie. LOL.

But when I really, really want comfort food, I crave homemade chicken and dumplings (NOT the canned stuff), field peas (sort of like blackeyed peas, but not quite), cornbread and peach cobbler. I am a Southern child at heart. And Southern chicken and dumplings are a completely different proposition from the kind you see recipes for in the women's magazines that have canned biscuits on top. Yuck. And one day, when my BG is behaving nicely, I'll eat some in moderation.

Salad also fills me up, even if it isn't as tasty as chicken and dumplings. However, a salad with barbecue pork on top is excellent!

Geeeesss, I shouldn't be reading this before dinner, I'm hungry!

Carne Asada burrito with cheese and guacamole from Robertos. I'll do the princesslinda trick, bring it home, throw away the flour tortilla and put it into a Mission Low Carb tortilla...mmmmm, in heaven and no spike!

Hiya

2 things I love and find filling:

Butterfly and flatten out some turkey breasts - 2 is ok (for me )

put some ricotta cheese in middle with chilli's or herbs or spinach and roll it up

Wrap the whole lot in parma ham and use a couple of cocktail sticks (low fat of course ) to secure the ends

pop in oven

or

stir fries with loads of chinese or thai veg and spice's

or

curries with lots of indian spice's with some philadelphia or low fat greek yoghurt to stir in at the end

Good luck and stay full

My favorite satisfying food is mashed potatoes and ground beef. Don't ask me why, but my Mother used to make that for me when I was sick and I loved it.

I love any kind of potatoes, but homemade mashed is the BEST.

A huge plate of chopped salad topped with a grilled sliced chicken breast is good... I can seem to tolerate rice pretty well as long as it is mixed with some protein; I make a really yummy casserole with long grain and wild rice mix (I think it is rice a roni natural selects or something like that) cooked a little short of being done, topped with frozen mixed veggies, cubed cooked chicken, and cover the whole thing with cream of mushroom soup; finish with some parmesan cheese and bake in the oven.

I am having a hard time finding breakfast items that don't send me soaring though...

Please note that all the chosen filling foods above contain FAT. Even the fried rice contains fat. It's the fat that is filling. Nore: I am not endorsing eating rice as it is a carby food. The celery is filled with cream cheese; the salad contains lots of cheese, etc. If you want to stave off hunger pangs, keep the carbohydrates low and eat some protein along with some "good" fat... cheese, nuts, cream cheese, avocado...

[fgummett]

Avocados, nuts, eggs, cheese... fat and protein basically. I find these last me the longest between hunger pangs.

A stuffed omelet for breakfast does it for me. I like to make an omelet with two eggs and I stuff it with sauteed onions and green pepper, some chopped tomatoes and shredded cheese. This keeps me full for hours.

So far what i have gathered reading this is that avocados, nuts, eggs, bacon, cheese, cream cheese, vegemite, peanut butter are all free foods

I have been eating a lot of almonds lately. I have found the chili and lime almonds have 2 net carbs for 28 pieces. But I have to watch them with their fat contant and the Ali that I am taking. Also a chicken breast marinated in pinapple juice usually does the trick.

[notme]

Ok Jan this is for you. GROSSSS..... Great Aussie Food - Buy Australia food products online, Tim Tams, Burger Rings, Twisties Go to this site and write in vegemite in the search. They have it.....tons of it. Gack! How do you eat the stuff?

Hi there

I couldn't stick to my diet without GG's Scandinavian Bran Crispbreads - they are 85% fibre and only 22 calories each. They obviously do a good job of filling the tummy. They have carbs but only the good sort. They are not that appetizing to look at as they resemble small cork tiles but I usually top them with extra light philidelphia with a smidgin of chili sauce just to give them a kick but any topping would be fine for these.

Aww Nancy. I have it on toast. Just because it's a ugly color many people thumb their nose at it as it the same for those who look at blue vein cheese.
Nancy, it's not all that bad. Please believe me.

[notme]

Not feeling so good now.
