You shouldn't really be hungry in between the meals. :P What are your stats, and how many carbs, protein, fat and calories are you taking in?

well u said ur "sort of" a vegetarian, but do u eat fish? Tuna is a great snack for dieting, at least it has worked for me. Also, apples are a good snack for dieting, anything with high fiber. For example, if im ever hungry before bed, ill eat a bowl of high fiber cereal (all bran, total, wheaties etc). good luck with it.

i do eat fish once in a while... is a canned tuna ok, if so how much of a serving is good for a snack.. what other choices do i have for breakfast besides oatmeal , and for dinner is tricky any suggestions.... by the way I am located in bklyn, ny.. are there any good personal trainers who can help me with nutrition and training to meet my goal.. thanks

yea canned tuna is the only kind of tuna ive ever eaten, just look at the nutritional value, it should have something like 100 calories and around 19g protein i think. just make sure that this would fit into your daily amount of calories
