Give your diet a helping hand with these appetite-curbing eats.
Apples
Not only does it keep the doctor away, chomp on an apple half an hour before your meal and the fibre and water will help fill you up.

Beans
If beans such as chickpeas, lentils and peas aren’t on your diet radar, it’s time to add them in. A study published in the Obesity journal found people were 31 percent more satisfied after eating a meal that contained beans.

Dark chocolate
Studies show that indulging in a square or two of chocolate can actually help curb your cravings. Make sure you choose dark chocolate though, which is more filling than milk.

Pickles
They’re low in calories, pack a flavour punch and take up stomach space, which make pickles the ultimate healthy snack. Just make sure you opt for the healthier versions made without added sugars and colouring.

Chilli powder
Spice fans rejoice – a study has shown that adding ¼ teaspoon of chilli powder to your meal can make you feel fuller.
