Well, I think fiber maximization might only be helpful if the problem is one of appetite, not feeling full after a meal, lack of satiety, cravings, nervous energy, boredom. I am a believer that gut bugs can have a clear influence on cravings, for instance as I took a probiotic that had me craving sugar, real sugar, something I hadn't eaten in several years. On a blog, I heard other people saying that same brand seemed to awaken certain psychiatric symptoms for them too. Prescript-Assist this was, which other people swear by.

Can you pin down why you want to eat, or what specifically?

I joined a real life weight loss group last year, and evening eating is apparently a big problem for people. I'm sort of the "information director" for the group, so I'll be reading this board with interest to bring back info to them, though none of them are lc.
