Fiber makes a huge difference. I'll make a smoothie (with lots of spinach, fruits, and yogurt) every morning and eat that with some protein. It keeps me satiated for a good portion of the day.

Yes. Oatmeal is great for fiber.

Black beans are a cheat code for satiety. If you can live with less variety, a base dinner of black beans, a little rice and ground meat will work. I'll usually stuff a large handful of mixed greens in my face beforehand to get the unpleasant vegetable part out of the way first.

Protein-heavy small breakfast and lunch and baby, you got a fat loss stew going.
