I don't seem to have the issue as much counting my calories out for myself though. I've found that if I load up on veggies I tend to feel fuller. I used to have to eat lots of meat and bread to feel full. It just takes time for your body to adjust to the change or corrected eating habits I think.

I'm a calorie gal now but I did WW for a long time. And there are ways to eat more food, volume-wise, for fewer points. Some breakfast ideas: scrambled egg whites w/ diced veggies & low fat cheese (hardly any points at all!); 1/2 of a slice of bread w/ one egg, 1/2 grapefruit, 1/2 ounce almonds. Lunch: 1/2 sandwich loaded with low-point toppings and sides: lettuce, tomatoes, bell peppers, spinach, sliced cucumbers. Use avocado as your spread instead of mayo - saves cals/points AND gives you healthy fat! Or, try taking leftovers from dinner the night before - I actually rarely eat sandwiches. Anyhow, there's a thread on the WW message boards called "Eat More, Lose More" and they have GREAT ideas for ways you can eat more and still lose, including ways to use your points to get the most filling food.

I calorie count and I find I'm a daytime eater, meaning I've rarely EVER snacked after dinner. I snack during the day. My usual plan is to eat around 300 calories for breakfast. (5:30 am) A 200 calorie snack around 9:30-10 A 400 calorie lunch at 12:30 A little something 100 cals if I'm hungry when I get home at 3:30 Then I totally gorge myself on dinner because I have 800-1000 calories left. I dunno, it works for me. Like I said, I think you just gotta find your trick. You know, I think it’s different for everyone.
