Hunger Cruncher

Some days you just feel you need a little more! If you are eating at least 1200 cal per day, which you must be at least, then you may have that feeling of emptyness. Make sure you are having at least those 1200 cal because if not, it may be much harder to loose weight because your body thinks you are in a starvation mode, so stock everything that comes in.

If you are careful, eating enough calories to be functioning well without jeopardizing your health and still feel that emptiness, go for celery. Celery is a vegetable that is rich in water, dietary fibers, vitamin C and vitamin K. It is one of the few vegetables which require actually more energy to digests that what it yields, which is what we need when wanting to lose weight. You can go for a snack with a branch of celery and a dip made with a little bit of peanut butter and soft tofu so it brings you proteins!

Moreover, if you are the type of person with excess fluid retention, celery seeds have been used as a diuretic for a very long time, its high levels of potassium and sodium help balance fluids.
