Selah Frost always felt like she was eating all the time—yet never truly full. “I’d have a sandwich at noon and be starving again by two,” she says. “It felt like a constant cycle.”
That’s when a nutritionist suggested she look at her fiber intake. “I realized I was getting maybe 10 grams a day,” she says. “No wonder I was hungry all the time.”
Instead of going straight to supplements, Selah restructured her meals around fiber-rich whole foods. She swapped white bread for whole grain, added lentils to her soups, and discovered a love for roasted Brussels sprouts and chickpeas.
The difference was immediate. Her energy stabilized. Cravings faded. “I wasn’t snacking out of desperation anymore,” she says. “I actually felt nourished.”
What surprised her most was how satisfying fiber-rich meals could be. A bowl of veggie chili kept her full for hours. A breakfast of oats with flaxseed and fruit powered her through busy mornings.
“I used to think I had no willpower,” Selah says. “But I just needed food that actually filled me.”
Now, she builds her meals with fiber in mind—not as a rule, but as a tool. “It’s not about being restrictive,” she adds. “It’s about staying full, focused, and feeling good.”
