Not all fats are created equal: Make yours mono and you may end up eating fewer calories. In promising preliminary research, monounsaturated fats -- olive oil, for instance -- appear to work better than other fats in delaying the time it takes you to feel hungry again. So put olive oil on your toast instead of butter or margarine.
And, nutty as it seems, studies show that a handful of well-timed nuts so effectively satisfies the appetite that you're less likely to overeat later.
