Hi Ruth
I never got hungry after a meal for the 1st 2 months and then did especially after adopting an exercise regime. There fore I gradually and carefully moved up the total weight of the meal proportionately from some 100 grams of protein and 150 grams of vegetable in the early stages to 200 grams protein and 300 grams vegetables in the eased adjustment phase. I alternate between hot and cold vegetable and use heavy (dense) vegetables e.g. celery, tomatoes, cucumbers, courgettes, gem hearts, carrots which easily tip the scales without a lot of volume. I always put olvie oil on to lubricate the vegatables and then cut it with a little balsamic which gives a wonderful but not to sour taste as well as lots of herbs. For hot vegetables just Microwave in a Steamer for 5 minutes and they are al Dante and keep all of there goodness without being dry.
Hope this helps
Owen
