Top Ways to Feel Full When Calories are LOW

If you’re currently cutting, we know it can be a challenging journey to say the least.

Headaches, hangriness, irritability, brain fog, forgetfulness, low energy- these can all be side effects of cutting calories and dieting!

This is also why we cycle in and out of cuts- because it’s not only challenging on the mind but on the body as well!

If you are currently in a cut, I wanted to share some of my favorite tips with you in order to feel as satiated as possible (which as we know is really challenging when in a deficit).

Keep these tips in mind when cutting calories:

• Switch to low calorie/artificial sweeteners

• Eat a BAS (big ass salad) for your lunch/dinner with at least 1.5-2 servings of protein (and all the veggies)

• Switch to diet sodas (or avoid them if you can).

• Consume low calorie/sugar free drinks/water before eating (crystal light and/or flavored seltzer are great options).

• Prepare your meals at home/eat out less (try to eat out only 2-3x a week).

• Select leaner cuts of meat chicken breast over thighs and flank steak or filet mignon).

• Double your veggie consumption and cut your starch consumption in half

• Eat mindfully and stop rushing your meals

• Look for lower calorie recipes of your favorite foods
