You can have a whole cup of delicious black or pinto beans for about 200 calories. They are more delicious with lots of salt (which has no calories, or vinegar which has only a few). Beans have some health benefits if you google but mostly the protein and fiber is enough to keep you full and avoid eating junk. Everyone is talking about how horrible food prices are. Beans used to be about a dollar a pound . Now they are a little over a dollar unless you buy several pounds at a time in one bag. Great Northern is the highest price I noticed online at $1.78. Navy $1.14, Black $1.28 at Walmart. Three pounds of dry black beans are $2.57 But the main thing is they fill you up for few calories. You will not need a snack before the next meal. I've lost 3 pounds in a week. ......No candy or almonds. Still drinking wine.
