So lately I've gotten serious about my health. I quit smoking (meaning all but 1-2 days a week, and when I'm on my motorcycle...), started weight lifting, very recently picked up a stationary bike for cardio (bad knee), and have severely restructured my diet.
Here's my problem: I am used to eating an absolutely ridiculous amount of food everyday. Typically, it didn't matter; now it does. The problem is I have a monster appetite. If I'm on a cutting cycle, I can't seem to find a mix that allows a low enough caloric intake to lose weight while not doing much cardio (still working up slowly...).
Does anyone have any suggestions as to foods I can eat a lot of that will fill me up, but won't add much to my caloric balance? I'm on my third night of boiling vegetables (carrots, cauliflower, broccoli). Salads have surprisingly a high amount of fat and calories when you take into account two tablespoons of any type of dressing......
