What foods are healthy but filling?

i try to eat healthily. but fruit and salads etc just dont fill me up. so if im in a rush to go out and i know i will have a long day or a long exam to sit i usually grab a few slices of toast or eat something stodgy in an attempt to fill up for a while longer. this is not good!
Answer:
High fiber foods are typically more filling (for longer) than many other foods."Here are the top 5 most filling foods:5. Baked potatoes are not just filling but loaded with fiber and nutrients, especially if you eat the skin. Remember not to pile on the fattening toppings, including cheese, sour cream and bacon.4. Beans have a lot of fiber so it takes a while to digest. Beans are also good for the heart. 3. Oatmeal is a thick, steamy, stick-to-your-ribs food. If its eaten for breakfast, you can go hours before needing to eat again.2. Fish, especially salmon, is even more filling than chicken or lean beef. It not only keeps you slimmer, but prevents heart disease as well as a lot of other illnesses.1. Grapes beat out every other food at being the best fill-me-up . They are a low-calorie food with a lot of fiber and water. Other foods that made the list include whole grain pasta, eggs, oranges, apples, chicken breast, lean beef, whole grain bread, popcorn, low-fat cheese and high-fiber cereals.If you need munchies, popcorn is a much better choice than chips because it takes a lot longer to digest.For an in-between meal snack, a low fat yogurt stays in your system longer than a candy bar.The perfect side dish is soup, especially chicken soup. It's more filling compared to white bread or refined products.For a beverage, the best choice would be low-fat chocolate milk. The worst is soda, either regular or diet.Don't forget, foods that are warmer tend to be slower to digest. "
Chicken and steak. A chicken breast on a whole wheat bun is an excellent on-the-go meal, that will fill you up.
Jacket Potato withTuna and Sweetcorn
Cottage Cheese
Chili.
Bananas.
Pulses.
Stodgy doesn't have to be bad. Whole grain cereals, breads, flapjacks all release energy slowly.
In order to be healthy, you have to make time for three squares a day. Loading up on carbs just makes you hungrier later and the sugar content in some breads is enormous. If you eat the three balanced meals a day, snacking in between with lots of fruit and veggies WILL fill you up enough. Always make sure to take time to take care of yourself, it matters!
Scrambled eggs on toast or baked potato with a healthy filling.Grilled fish with salad.Porridge is good for slow release energy.
Cucumber. a whole one.
Make sure your salad has VEGGIES in it. Sometimes I make a salad with:lettuce
tomatos
carrots
peppers
cucumbers
kidney beans
chik peasand put it in a HUGE bowl in the fridge so I can always grab some quickly. Then (this may sound nasty), but I put mini bran shredded wheat bits on it (like in place of croutons). The fiber in all the veggies, the beans, and the shredded wheat fills you up pretty good. I usually use either just olive oil + ms. dash seasoning as a topper OR I'll put a spoon of mayo in a bowl with several seasonings and add water and mix it up until it's VERY liquidy and pour it over the whole salad so it's a light taste (then most of it sinks to the bottom lol).A piece of toast with scrambled eggwhites + ketchup.A plain boca burger and mixed frozen veggies with seasoning and olive oil.Spaghetti squash with canned tomatos, kidney beans, basil, and olive oil.A sweet potato (VERY HEALTHY diet food!).. must be sweet, not white. Have that with fat free yogurt, cottage cheese, or sour cream. Or even just salt and olive oil.Carrot sticks, apple sticks, or cellery sticks with peanutbutter.What i find is, honestly, if I keep a healthy diet throughout the day, I stay full. But if I only have 1-2 healthy meals and the rest is garbage, then it doesn't matter what I eat, I still get hungry.Remember that sugar and white refined carbs cause cravings. So if you have them, it's harder to stay full.High fiber, high protein meals are best at filling you up.
When im hungry for something healthy, i usually eat crackers and they fill me up. Or else its because they're not really that nice and i just dont want anymore lol !
Porridge you can make with soya milk microwave in a plastic container very quick to do. I find if I use less milk then it doesn't overflow you add more after it is cooked.
toast won't do it, especially if it's white.
I would suggest start your day with sugarfree muesli and semiskimmed milk, that will keep you going for hours. Then a wholemeal sandwich with chicken, ham, tuna etc. and salad at around 1pm. And in the evening a jacket potato with hot beans, or some tnd fish or chilli or wholemeal pasta with pasta sauce out of a jar and some cheese grated over. This will keep you nourished and your sugar level in the blood on an even keel and your brain alert.
Hope this is helpful.
try yogurt mixed with weat germ, oats, and some type of cereal like granola.
wholegrain foods, fruit, fruit smoothies, pasta, porridge... and other low GI products.
