Dieting is hard for most of us, especially the first couple of weeks. First of all, you are going from over sized portions to healthy portions so your tummy doesn't feel full. According to Health.com, cronic hunger may also indicate that your diet is imbalanced or inadequate.

Nutritian experts recommend that dieters eat foods that are rich in protein and fiber to help fight those hunger pangs. Food World News just recently put out a list of the top 6 foods that will help you stay on track with your diet.
