COTTAGE CHEESE
"It’s the perfect breakfast because it keeps me full until lunch," says Melody Abedinejad, 22, of Weston, Massachusetts. "I lost 40 pounds in 10 weeks!"
Why it works Cottage cheese has whey protein, which releases hormones that tell your brain when you’ve had enough to eat, says Dave Grotto, R.D., of Chicago. Look for lowfat versions, which have 80 calories and 1 gram of fat per 1/2 cup.
EGG WHITES
"I eat them every day," says Jennifer Ruff, 36, of New York City. "I throw in a little cheese for flavor."
Why they work The amino acids in egg whites help build lean muscle that may in turn help rev metabolism. Lowfat cheese will curb calorie creep.

SUSHI
"It’s low-calorie, filling and something I can order on a date that doesn’t scream ‘I’m watching my figure,’" says Shira Kallus, 29, of New York City.
Why it works A piece of sushi has 30 to 40 calories and plenty of satiating protein. Skip rolls that are fried or are made with mayo.

PEANUT BUTTER
"I spread it on light bread, and it sticks with me until dinner," says Christina Sarracino, 30, of San Francisco. "This lunch helped me lose 90 pounds."
Why it works "Peanut butter has satisfying healthy fats," says Kathy McManus, R.D., director of nutrition at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston. Watch portions, though: Two tablespoons have 190 calories.

BEANS
I started eating beans to replace red meat. They’re great when you’re craving something with substance," says Amy Balestier, 34, of Hoboken, New Jersey.
Why it works You can’t beat beans—they’re only about 150 calories per 1/2 cup and full of protein, fiber and antioxidants. Toss your faves into soups, salads and chili.

FAT - FREE PLAIN YOGHURT
"I stir it into tuna salad instead of mayonnaise. It tastes and feels similar," says Ashley Liu, 26, of New York City.
Why it works The yogurt has fewer than 10 calories per tablespoon, versus 90 in regular mayo. Mix in mustard to create a spicy Dijonaise.
LETS GIVE IT A TRY ...
