What a change! He looks great! Glad to hear he is a proponent of healthy living .

One of the posters to the comments section following the linked article raised an interesting point: That Bill Clinton is apparently doing this for health reasons rather than for ethical/moral reasons. Perhaps one could also add religious/spiritual reasons alongside ethical/moral reasons, since the religious and ethical reasons often appear to be go hand-in-hand. 

I agree that is commendable. I wonder what his girlfriends are eating.

Dot--hi. I don't know if this fits in with yiur deit but Legumes like chick peas (garbanzo beans) Pinto beans, Black beans etc have tons of protein and because they are metabolized slowly over a long period of time do usually create a feeling of fullness/satisfaction for quite a while.

I often combine them with fish like tuna for a salad that is a full and satisfying meal--and that's after weightlifting etc when my body is craving protein.

As I said--make sure that this is okay with the diet you have been given.

As with you I don't find veggies particularly filling/satiating--but I do like them as a snack--like carrots etc--instead of snacking on something full of fat like chips....I am retraining msyelf to reach for some veggies instead of snack food when I do get those cravings.

Dot--I like hummus too. I eat it with pita and some fresh fruit--I fidn that citrus goes with it especially well.

Also--I don't much like legumes by themseklves--which is why I add them to tuna or whole grain pasta.

One of my vfave dishes is black beans and rice and corn and avocado....all mixed together and topped with salsa....mmmm.
