Hello! How’s it going? Today I am hungry and I want to eat a lot. So, I have some killer tips on what to eat if you want to eat a lot.

But, first we should hydrate. I’m using the leftover mint from yesterday’s Watermelon Detox Green Smoothie to fancy up my water. So refreshing!
Last night I prepared overnight oats with protein powder.
In the jar: 1/2 cup oats, scoop protein powder, chia seeds, almond milk, peanut powder.
I ate these before my run because I had a late start.
I guess all the social media updates on the east coast storm confused me because I way overdressed for my run. Long sleeves were not necessary.
After my run I had a few errands to accomplish. I stopped at Costco and picked up a few things including a container of blueberries.
Then, I proceeded to eat the whole massive thing! I’m only sad because now I don’t have blueberries for tomorrow. Boo.
What to eat when you want to eat a lot:
1. Popcorn.
2. Blueberries or other berry.
3. Tiny tomatoes.
4. Carrots or celery.
5. Arctic Zero.
6. A big smoothie.
7. Frozen fruit – grapes are a good one.
8. Roasted broccoli. <- I made this for my fam this weekend and they loved it.
9. Jicima.
10. RICE. <- You can eat hundreds of them.
My day to day uniform this month includes my Costco pull-over. I get a question about it every time I wear it on Instagram. It’s from Costco. That’s all.
I also found these multi-seed crackers from TJ’s. A serving size is 35. Perfect.
Question: What do you eat when you want to eat a lot?
Do you add lemon or mint to your water?
Every weekend i used to visit this site, as i wish for enjoyment, for the reason that this this website conations in fact pleasant funny stuff
too.
I wore my same shirt in purple today, with no coat, even though we are to get 10 inches of snow in the next 24 hours or so, I kinda refused the whole coat thing since I am over them
Ive found some surprisingly cute things at Costco. I dont always look for them, which maybe I should.
When I want to eat a lot of something I will try and have it be a massive amount of brussel sprouts or squash, but as of late it has been the giant bag of chocolate covered super fruits that i got at Costco. Thankfully I polished it off yesterday so they aren’t here to taunt me anymore.
It’s been too long since I’ve had a massive amount of brussel sprouts 🙂
Is that long sleeve running top by New Balance? If so I have that one too and wore it yesterday! It’s my favorite! So soft! I eat a lot of grapes. My dietitian asked me earlier this week if I could eat 30-35 grapes. Challenge accepted.
Yes, New Balance.
This was a really interesting post. Although I’m less inclined to eat rice when I want to eat loads. I love eating tons of popcorn though. Where did you get your top from? I love that you can put your thumbs through the fabric.
Love the color of that top you were running in. Who makes that?
Mint in my water (from the garden – it’s grown in a pot since it’s so invasive), but only during the summer.
For eating a lot, eggs – but mostly the whites.
And frozen strawberries! I’ll freeze many quarts of them when the berries come in each May. Just capped and rinsed – no sugar. Then I’ll sprinkle them with a little stevia Just before eating.
When I’m super hungry (that’s usually when I wanna eat “big”), I try to “prolong” my meal ie chew slowly, savour the meal etc. I wish I had lemon slices for my water but I’ve not gone shopping in a few days and the kitchen is rather empty. Love love love lemon slices in Perrier or any sizzling water.
Popcorn and blueberries are my go to food. I actually stopped at the store after work today just to get enough blueberries to get me through the next two days.
TOMATOES. I like to slice tomatoes, sprinkle them with salt and chili powder, and go to town. I have a small obsession. Also, I have that exact same pullover, and I’m completely in love with it – I actually considered buying one in every color, and then decided that was overkill.
I usually stick to blueberries too. I LOVE them! I love that I can eat a bowl of them and it seems like a treat to me since it’s something I can snack on for a long time, but it’s still healthy! I also go for grapes sometimes too.
Brussels sprouts…lots of them, apples, and nuts especially almonds.
My dinner tonight was one of those meals… a few ounces of deli turkey, a few light laughing cow, a bag of spinach sautéed with mushrooms, and a cucumber and carrot sticks to dip in the laughing cow. And I chow apples, grapes, and cherry tomatoes when I want even more!!!!
I love having an entire english cucumber sliced up and then having a side of hummus with sriracha to dip it in to (I blame you for the hummus/sriracha addiction). Eating it with the cucumber is more guilt free than using pita chips or something!
I also LOVE air popped popcorn for guilt free snacking!
Frozen grapes! I can smash two bags of frozen grapes in a week, by myself, without even trying.
Too bad all the desserts doesn’t land on this list. When I am super hungry and want to eat a lot, I tend to eat strawberries, watermelon, and/or veggies and hummus!
Haha, exactly what you posted is what I eat when I want to eat a lot! Popcorn and veggies are big for me. And berries. I LOVE berries.
Popcorn, grapes, and berries are my go-to foods when I want to eat a lot.
I add Nuun to my water! 🙂
Great post!! I definitely have some high volume low cal go-to foods for when I need to eat a lot (for a few days a month esp – ahem!). I love puffed rice cereal mixed with greek yogurt and a little maple syrup, so big and delicious!! As well as a ton of spiralized zuchinni with mixed veggies, HB egg and light ranch dressing. The best!

What I could eat if I want to eat a lot:
Almond Milk
Iceberg lettuce(no really this sh*t is addictive)!
And did you cook the overnight oats or did you just eat it straight outta the jar, outta the fridge? Looks gooey and nice!
I do romaine lettuce!
I do almond milk with stevia and diced nuts for crunch!
I warmed up the oats, but in the summer I’d probably eat them cold.
I like the concept of lemon and mint in my water, but I’m too lazy to actually do it. And I usually never buy mint.
Usually I’m way too lazy too! I felt all fancy.
Glenny’s barbecue soy crisps! They have a lot of protein and are super crunchy (like rice cakes). I always get full. Grapefruits are filling too.
And if I just want to crunch I’ll eat pickles. That’s more for mindless eating. I don’t really get full from them
Popcorn, carbonated water (so I feel like I’m still drinking soda), grapes, yogurt & multigrain crackers
Usually a giant bag of baby carrots. Grapes/berries are good too.
After a long run though – chips.
Veggie straws. They were bogo and I can’t stop eating them. Only 650 calories per bag so one bag=one meal. Or at least that’s what I tell myself.
I love popcorn, chocolate chips, celery, and salsa for when I have the munchies!
A big salad with everything but the kitchen sink!
Usually a ridiculously huge egg white omelet with lots of roasted veggies
Popcorn, drink carbonated water, coffee, grapes, a big bowl of stir fry veggies!
I’ve haven’t really thought about it, but I guess I turn to soup or puréed vegetables – I can eat bowls and bowls of them & they’re super warm and comforting in this kinda weather!
I like to eat lots of meat when I’m starving. It fills me up rightly. It’s also self-limiting, so it’s hard to overeat and ruin your diet.
I’m a huge meat eater so it’s win win for me.
Popcorn, chicken, shrimp, Barilla protein plus pasta. I think I’m hungry now…!
I’m really bummed that chocolate chip cookies didn’t make the list 🙂
