Topping up on fibre seems to fill me up

[dreamcatcher67]

I am a true baby stepper - so reading the blurb at the very beginning of the nhs 12 week plan - it mentions the 18g daily recommended fibre intake. I decided to log my food using fitness pal to see if I could monitor and improve my fibre amount. I've been watching it for about a week now. FP actually recommends 25g. I've managed just over 25g a day, and have noticed how satiated my appetite is. No evening cravings or urges to nibble my way through the day.

So this is a healthy habit I will try to keep up.

I haven't actually monitored my fibre, but I remember that was one of the first pieces of advice in the plan. Good to hear it does work in practice!

Hi Dreamcatcher67,

It's great to hear you've managed to achieve the recommended fibre of 25g, and that you feel satiated as a result. Great that you've not had evening cravings or urges to nibble during the day. Sounds like you're developing a healthy habit, and making good progress.

Wishing you a great week ahead.
