What are some nutritious foods that are filling and good for a diet?

If you are feeling hungry then IF is a no. Time restricting calories will obviously make you more hungry. Also IF is debunked and it does not “boost metabolism or burn fat”. There are no benefits from IF apart from personal preferences of fasting. So first of all if you are not losing weight that means you are not on deficit, you either move too little or eat too much. Dieting is not a rocket science, you dont have to avoid any food or stick to specific diet plan to lose weight. I eat the same all year long no matter if bulking or cutting, the only difference is amount of calories that i eat and i burn - calories in vs calories out. If you are feeling hungry on diet, you eat too little but still you move too little to be in deficit. Also too much salads and greens can cause constipation which will only make it harder. Before you start dieting, calculate your BMR as accurate as possible and stick to the numbers. Eventually after week or so you will find that weight is going down. As little as 250kcal deficit is enough to start losing weight, it is not working like “more deficit = more fat burned” because our body is limited to specific amount of fat that it can burn every day. If you are overweight lets say 10kg, your body is able to burn max 40-60kcal worth of fat per every excesses kg of fat. That means 10kg = max 600kcal of burned fat per day which is equal to more or less 70g of fat. So if you will jump on 1000kcal deficit hoping to lose fat quicker, your body simply wont double the numbers. Because you want to.
