What Foods Are Best For Weight Loss?


These best fat burning foods can all be categorised into one easy list, to make it easier to remember. (I'm all about make weight loss as simple as possible). This category that I am talking about is lean protein.
Protein is that hardest nutrient of all for your body to break down and digest. Therefore it takes more calories to do so and burns more calories. Protein also makes you feel fuller for longer.
Here is a list to guide you on the best lean proteins:
  • Chicken
  • Turkey
  • Lean Red Meat
  • Eggs
  • Fish

Now, obviously you cannot just eat the protein foods above by themselves, so what is best to eat with these foods?
Generally speaking you cannot go wrong with vegetables to with the protein foods. You probably know the benefits of vegetables, so there is no point me boring you with all the details. I have a nice little tip for you with the protein and vegetables.
For all your meals; try to fill your plate with two-thirds of the lean proteins and vegetables. Before you add anything else to your meal. Obviously having your entire plate with protein and vegetables is best. But you cannot be expected to eat like that all the time.
On a final note for what foods are best for weight loss, I will quickly tell you what foods to avoid. You should avoid processed carbohydrates such as white pasta, white rice and white bread.

These foods are the easiest of all foods to be broken down and digested. This is because they have had all the good nutrition removed from them during processing. When you eat these foods you also put your body into fat storage mode. Due to hormone release (insulin). So try to avoid them!
