    What foods are best for making you feel full until the next meal. Other than egg whites and chicken I don't know what to try.

    Nuts/nut butters are good too due to their high protein/fat content. (Good fats, mind). Maybe a slice of wholegrain bread with some peanut butter?

    I'm trying to stay clear of bread as it repeats on me too much. As do bananas. Its a curse and a half because I love a good banana sandwich.

    Well you might be allergic to bananas, I am! They were repeating away on me and giving me tummy cramps until I asked the doc and he said you can be alergic to a chemical in them, and is also the case with avocado.
    However I have found that if you cook them it no longer hurts.

    Anyway, how about some oatmeal pancakes? Rubadub's famous recipe lets you have the fullness of porridge with the tastyness of pancakes!

    Great to refrigerate and pop in the toaster the next day!

    Also high fiber products such as rich brown bread etc can help keep you full.

    I find that chickpeas keep me feeling really full; you can use them to make falafel or curry or just put them in a salad.

    Going against the grain (ha!) here, but I find that something with a high fat content helps me to feel full. Obviously, if you're on a low fat diet (I'm not), then that won't be the solution for you, but a plate of scrambled eggs cooked in butter works for me, or even a little extra virgin olive oil drunk off of a spoon. Some people swear by coconut oil, but I've never tried it.
