Brussel Sprouts and Carrots: Try half a cup of brussel sprouts or carrots right before dinner to help curb your hunger. They are full of beneficial nutrients like fiber, Vitamin A and vitamin C.

Fresh Fruit: A cup of fresh fruit like blueberries, raspberries or apples will give you a boost of energy to get through the day.

Mixed Nuts: A handful of mixed nuts like walnuts, almonds and pistachios are packed with antioxidants, healthy oils and protein.
