Are you looking for ways to fill up on fiber? If you want to speed up your weight loss program, use my 9 tips for packing fiber into your diet:

  • Add a few spoonfuls of unprocessed wheat bran to your morning breakfast
    choice
  • Choose whole grain low carb breads or tortillas
  • Use whole wheat flour for half of any baking flour
  • Try brown rice, barley, whole wheat or spelt pasta
  • Add beans to your diet using garbanzos, kidney and white navy beans
  • Raw vegetables, dried fruits, low-fat popcorn can increase your fiber
    count.
  • Add barley to soups or stews
  • Eat generous quantities of vegetables
  • Add bran cereal to foods such as meatloaf.

    • Again, portion control is important, but if you focus on these items
    you will pack a lot of fiber into fewer carbs and calories and that can spell WEIGHT LOSS in any language!
