Free Foods That Won’t Make You Fat
If you are still hungry at the end of the day, there are a number of foods you can eat that will not affect your diet. In fact, they are likely to provide other health benefits such as improved skin, extra energy, and increased consumption of all your vitamins and minerals.
Take a look at what someone wrote in to eDiets:
“Dear eDiets:
I’m hungry at the end of the day. Are there any “free foods” I can eat?

Sometimes “free foods” are just what you need to get over that hump without adding extra calories. Sugar-free gelatin, drink mixes and chewing gum are a few items you can have.
Raw salad is a great filler and has a small number of calories. Water, sodium-free club soda or seltzer with a twist of lemon may satisfy you until the next meal.
You can also try spreading out your meals. If you eat five to six times a day, you may find yourself not as hungry and more satisfied. It can also help speed up your metabolism. You can take items from your meal plan and use them as snacks. There’s no set time when you have to eat a particular food.
Since each meal plan is calculated according to your personal profile, just follow your plan and you’ll be right on track. Don’t forget the substitution list. It can give you alternatives when you feel like having something different.
Do you have a question about your plan? If so, please email Nutrition Support at nutritionsupport@ediets.com.”
I agree with most of what’s said, although stuffing yourself full of sugar-free snacks only increases your desire for the real thing, and increases the amount of toxins you have in your body.
