Fiber foods, not starches...
OK, so that hardly makes sense, but I'm looking for foods that have good fiber that aren't pastas, breads, rice and so forth. I know some fruits are supposed to be good in fiber like I think apples. Anyone have any other suggestions?

no, bread isn't bad, but I used to eat an entire loaf of french bread at a sitting with olive oil and balsamic vinegar... then I wondered why my clothes were so tight. Someday I may try logging that just to see how many cals it was... naaaahhh... i don't need to know!

I'm a baker
I love eating bread too, but feel I have to avoid it now that I want to lose weight. I did make bread that is very high in fiber but you could only stand to eat one piece it was so earthy tasting

a few good snacks with lots of fibre in our dried fruits particuarly prunes and apricots but dont eat too many cos they can add up to be quite calorific and sugary and nuts.
Love whole grain bread. I sometimes ate an entire loaf a day. Added it up.. and decided that I should just eat salad for the rest of the day. It worked. :P
Fiber Gourmet pasta...high fiber, low calorie.
I'm doing exactly the same way - searching for foods that are high in fibre but low in carbs. Today I found a new cereal bar manufactured by Nature Valley: it has 5g fibre and only 24g carbs per bar. It also has Omega 3 and Omega 6 and low sodium at 80g.
ARTICHOKES = #1!!!!!!
Old fashioned oatmeal, not the quick cook kind, are high in fiber and only 150 cals. per 1/2 cup (dry). Cook in only 5 minutes.
Oroweat has a new bread out called Double Fiber bread. It has 6g of fiber, 4g of protein and only 70cal per slice. And very hearty, not a lowcal version at all. It's very tasty!
Fiber One cereal has 14 grams in a 1/2 cup serving.
