One of the things I picked up from "the Four Hour Body" book, in many ways a dumb crash diet but it is true: incorporating beans in your diet every day keeps your blood sugar steady and your stomach full like no other food, plus all the fiber keeps you regular if you are skipping bread, cereal, etc.

Of course I would have blown that advice off except for one thing: I LOVE BEANS!! They are cheap and delish.
