Increase fiber gradually and drink water. I learned that the hard way. More fiber is good, but your gut may need time to adjust.

It is not magic, but it is one of the few boring health habits that actually feels useful. My snacks changed from crackers to fruit with peanut butter or yogurt with chia, and I stopped getting hungry so fast.

Fiber helped me more than I expected, mostly with fullness and digestion. Oats, beans, berries and vegetables made the difference. I added it slowly because jumping too fast made my stomach complain.
