Eliminate the “extras”. This means the unnecessary foods that you know aren’t very good for you anyway. Removing such foods as candy bars, soft drinks, store-bought cookies and cakes, and alcohol can go a long way in reaching a 1500 calorie diet. The key to feeling full while following a 1500 calorie diet is to load up on foods that are full of fiber. Fiber is a dense nutrient and leads to that feeling of fullness in your stomach. You’d be surprised at some of the food that are high in fiber and fit in perfectly to a 1500 calorie diet. Such foods as raspberries, beans and other legumes, and even whole-wheat pasta are high in fiber and great for a 1500 calorie diet.
