One of the selling points of atkins is that fat often really does make a person feel full more easily, even when eating fewer overall calories. Rather than going that far, I'd throw in more healthy fats, such as olives, avocado, coconut, nuts/seeds, and some dairy (for nonvegans like myself), particularly in the form of butter and cream (little to no lactose, just fat), or a bit of cheese. Very nutritious foods, even without a lot of fat, are more apt than junk food to make one feel full, and a positive emotional environment also helps.
