6 Shocking Foods That Keep You Slim

Being on a diet doesn't have to mean being hangry. The key? Tasty eats (like popcorn!) that are shown to stave off hunger. "Certain foods have just the right combination of nutrients, volume, flavor and even texture to help control your appetite," says Marjorie Nolan Cohn, R.D., the author of The Belly Fat Fix. Read on for six kitchen staples that work overtime to keep you full.



Popcorn




If you need to nosh, pick popcorn. It's loaded with fiber, which leaves you feeling satisfied for hours by slowing digestion. And that's not all. When researchers in a Nutrition Journal study fed people either popcorn or potato chips, they found that 15 calories' worth of low-fat popcorn was as satisfying as 150 calories' worth of chips, thanks to the superior snack's combo of being low in calories and high in volume.

While there's no magic trick to making your eyebrows grow back in, there are ways to make the transition a little easier. A well-utilized eyebrow pencil may keep anyone from noticing! Method 1  Waiting it Out 1)    Plan to wait for several months. Eyebrows take a long time to grow back fully after they've been overplucked. For some people it might only take six weeks, but others may have to wait a full year before their eyebrows regain their former shape. The best thing you can do for your brows is to be patient.
