Check out some foods that will help you lose
weight.
Trying to lose weight? Instead of thinking about
what you shouldn't eat, focus on the delicious
foods that will help keep you satisfied. Here are
10 top picks for foods that can help you lose
weight.
Cucumbers
Although cucumbers offer only modest
nutritional benefits (a bit of vitamin C, A, and
some fiber), this delicately flavored member of
the gourd family goes a long way in bulking up a
salad, and making you feel nice and full for few
calories. Or if you’re in the mood for a crunchy
snack, slice them up with the skin on, instead of
reaching for potato chips or crackers.
Grapefruit
Grapefruit is a delicious and nutritious sweet-tart
snack, breakfast side or salad topping. But
researchers have also discovered that eating
grapefruit or grapefruit juice daily can aid in
weight loss, possibly due to a reduction in insulin
levels.
Lentils
Packed with fibre, folate and magnesium, this
versatile fat-free legume can be a fabulous
supporting player of a slimming healthy eating
regimen. Lentils, prepared any number of ways,
will have you feeling as if you've eaten a meaty,
even creamy, dish minus the calories and
saturated fat that come with eating meat.
Oats
Oats and oatmeal are high in fiber, which helps
you feel full – and satisfied – longer. Plus
consumption of whole grains has been shown to
aid in weight loss. For the best benefits, fill up on
oatmeal for breakfast – try steel-cut oats if you've
got the time, or instant oatmeal if you prefer to
eat at work (just try to pick the sugar-free kinds
and add your own sweeteners).
Foods with shells
If you’re a compulsive snacker with a yen for salt,
foods with their natural shells on can help you
slow down and savour what you’re eating while
curbing the craving. For instance, unsalted
pistachio nuts, walnuts in the shell, peanuts, and
edamame in the pod can help you curb your
cravings for saltier, unhealthier junk food. Plus,
you’re not as likely to overeat if you have to work
for your reward.
Apples
Plentiful and versatile, apples can help you satisfy
sugar cravings for less calories. Whether eaten
fresh as a mid afternoon snack in the office or
baked for dessert, these nutritional powerhouses
will help fill you up and keep you slim.
Almonds
All nuts are healthy and loaded with good fats
and other nutrients, but almonds are the one to
go for when you’re trying to lose weight. They’re
lower in calories than many of their cousins (that
means you, macadamias) and the protein and fat
content will help keep cravings at bay.
