TLDR
Both diets significantly increased fiber intake by 75%, increased satiation, and reduced hunger, and were rated as potentially acceptable as long as six months.Abstract:
Objective. Dietary fiber can reduce hunger and enhance satiety, but fiber intake during hypocaloric weight loss diets typically falls short of recommended levels. We examined the nutritional effects and acceptability of two high-fiber hypocaloric diets differing in sources of fiber: (a) beans or (b) fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. Methods. Subjects were 2 men, 18 women, mean age = 46.9, and mean BMI = 30.6. Subjects completed 3-day food diaries in each of the two baseline weeks. Subjects were then randomized to four weeks on one of two 1400-calorie diets including 25-35 g fiber primarily from 1.5 cups beans/day or from fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. Recommended fiber-rich foods were provided. Subjects kept weekly 3-day food diaries and were assessed weekly. Results. Diet conditions did not differ on outcome measures. Both diets increased fiber intake from 16.6 g/day (SD = 7.1) at baseline to (treatment average) 28.4 g/day (SD = 6.5) (P < 0.001). Fiber intake was consistent over treatment. Caloric intake dropped from 1623.1 kcal/day (SD = 466.9) (baseline) to 1322.2 kcal/day (SD = 275.8) (P = 0.004). Mean weight loss was 1.4 kg (SD = 1.5; P < 0.001). Energy density and self-reported hunger decreased (P's < 0.01) while self-reported fullness increased (P < 0.05). Both diets were rated as potentially acceptable as long as six months. Conclusions. Both diets significantly increased fiber intake by 75%, increased satiation, and reduced hunger. Results support increasing fiber in weight loss diets with a variety of fiber sources.read more

Functional foods to promote weight loss and satiety
TL;DR: Several foods and food groups show promising potential in inducing satiety, however, it is important to recognize that the short-term effect of a food may not always translate into greater weight loss in the long term.

Dietary fiber and its effect on obesity: A review article
TL;DR: All the cross-sectional and cohort studies suggested a significant relationship between fiber intake and a reduction in obesity or a classification of being overweight, and some treatment groups showed no association with fiber supplementation, whereas other studies with longer interventional periods showed a significant association with obesity.

TL;DR: The SG intervention resulted in less weight gain, fat accrual, and weight retention at 1 year postpartum with the participants reporting continued efforts to consume a high fiber diet.

A Comprehensive Critical Assessment of Increased Fruit and Vegetable Intake on Weight Loss in Women.
Mark L. Dreher,Nikki A. Ford +1 more
TL;DR: Consistent evidence from prospective studies and RCTs shows that increased intake of FV is a chief contributor to weight loss in women, and this effect is enhanced with concurrent dietary restriction of high energy density (ED) or high-fat foods.

TL;DR: In this study, premenopausal overweight and obese women assigned to follow the Atkins diet, which had the lowest carbohydrate intake, lost more weight and experienced more favorable overall metabolic effects at 12 months than women assignedto follow the Zone, Ornish, or LEARN diets.

TL;DR: Dry beans supply protein, complex carbohydrate, fiber and essential vitamins and minerals to the diet, yet are low in fat and sodium and contain no cholesterol as discussed by the authors, which makes them ideally suited to meet two major dietary recommendations for good health.

TL;DR: No evidence is found that diets higher than 800 mg of calcium in dairy products or higher in fiber and lower in glycemic index enhance weight reduction beyond what is seen with calorie restriction alone.
