When adopting a new diet to lose weight, food choice is everything. It’s not just cutting out foods that are rich in sugar and high empty in calories, it’s also about eating foods that will leave you satisfied after a meal. One of the reasons obesity has become such an epidemic in America is the sheer abundance of unhealthy junk foods that are now available. If you try to stick to a diet composed largely of foods that don’t leave you feeling satisfied you leave yourself open to the ubiquitous temptation of vending machines and fast food restaurants.
On that note, it’s a good idea to cut both French fries and potato chips out of your diet. While potatoes themselves are rich in nutrients and are very filling, chips and fries are so rich in sodium and saturated fat, they effectively have no nutritional value. Also, it’s a good idea to cut sugary drinks and juices out of your diet when trying to lose weight. The reason being, many sodas and fruit juices are filled with sugar and empty calories. Because your body doesn’t register the intake of liquid calories the same way does as their solid counterparts, you can easily consume hundreds of excess calories in one sitting.
