Weight Loss Foods

Being overweight in most of the cases is very embarrassing, especially due to its associated social stigma, that makes us completely reluctant even taking a minimum amount of food, hence it results in different complications such as gas, acidity and many others. But simply switching to weight loss foods can really help you to get a control over your weight and help you to maintain an optimum health system with full of energy and vitality.

 Anyone can maintain a good health just by following two essential points - (1) have fat and cholesterol free healthy diet and (2) do exercise (or simply walk). Health practitioners usually do not suggest their clients to stay on fasting, rather they prefer to suggest them having nutritional food that eventually contribute to weight loss.

Although there are a great variety of options available for weight loss foods that you can actually add in your daily diet, I am here describing few among them which I find commonly suggested by health experts.

Chilled Soups

Cold or chilled soups can serve the purpose of low calorie dishes. It can include gazpacho or cucumber-dill, which are typically rich with plenty of green vegetables. It is excellent to take prior having meal. Also several health researchers confirm that having this type of low-calorie broth-based soup can actually minimize the amount of meal you can intake by providing you a sense of fullness.

Watermelon

Most of the health experts recommend having watermelon if you are really serious about losing or maintaining your weight. Watermelon, being one of the best weight loss foods, satisfies your demand for fluid in the body while providing you a sweet flavor and a sense of fullness. Watermelon contains carotenoid compounds like lycopene and beta carotene that offer a wide range of health benefits ranging from immunizing against cancer to preventing from sun-burn. The juice of watermelon in combination with cucumber is an excellent delicious weight loss choice.

Grilled Veggie

Without a dish of grilled vegetable on your dinning table, your diet plan with weight loss foods may not be adequate enough. You may add grilled onion, eggplant, carrots, garlic, zucchini and asparagus as a part of your healthy diet. You can have those in the form of veggie salad or in combination with other healthy recipes like ricotta, fresh herb pasta or frittatas.


Fruit Desserts

Most of us feel that without a dessert at the end of the meal, the meal seems incomplete. But desserts have a high risk for promoting fat and cholesterol to our health system. If you prepare them with natural fruits such as grilled white peaches mixed with blackberries and honey, it will definitely add no extra calories to your diet and offer you an experience of weight loss foods in return.
