You’re not going to lose weight without a healthy diet. In order to get the best result, you should have knowledge on what foods can help you lose weight and how much of these foods to consume every day. Just working out alone will not reduce your weight – you need the diet to go with it too!

With this blog post, we will share with you some foods that can help you lose weight and guide you on how much of each food to eat every day. Check out these great tips on how you can lose weight with food – it’s entirely possible!

Oatmeal

Eating oatmeal for breakfast is a great way to beat those sugar cravings throughout the morning since it takes a while for your body’s blood sugar levels to go up after eating oats as opposed to other breakfast options like bread.

Oatmeal works great as a base for many dishes. It’s easy to cook, goes well with sweet or savory toppings, and is very healthy for you – besides being low in empty calories.

Avocado:

One cup of avocado contains 50 percent of the daily value of vitamin E and 15 percent of your daily value of vitamin K that aids in bone health and helps prevent kidney stones. It also contains nearly 20 grams of fiber! Can we say yummy!

Avocado may have gotten a bad rep as an expensive fruit that gets millennials broke, but it does this with a purpose: they’re really good, and really versatile! They’re great as a dessert, as guac, or as avo toast. Be creative!

Sweet potato

Sweet potatoes make you feel fuller, longer. A study from Purdue University found that eating a baked sweet potato with lunch kept blood sugar more stable and helped people eat fewer calories over the course of a day compared to eating a starchy white potato.

Sweet potatoes are also a great substitute for normal empty carbs such as rice. Instead of having a cup of rice, enjoy a much healthier serving of sweet potato! Stir-fry it in garlic and butter for a savory version.

Spinach

Spinach has been proven to be one of the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet, and it’s also low in calories. A half-cup of raw spinach contains 7 calories, while a 3-ounce serving of cooked spinach contains just 21 calories.

Spinach is also one of the cheaper vegetables available in the market, and is a great addition to many pasta dishes. Need a quick meal? Stir fry some spinach and add cream and you’ve got yourself a quick spinach pasta sauce!

Pistachios

This is one of the best things you can eat while on a weight loss diet. Pistachios offer a high fiber content, which keeps you feeling full longer.

Pistachios are also great as an idle food – when you’re bored and not doing much, you may get a little snacky. Pistachios are a less-sinful way to snack!

Salmon and Other Fish

Different fish, particularly Salmon are full of heart-healthy fats and protein, and one serving offers more than 50 percent of your daily value of vitamin B12.

Vitamin B12 helps your body produce energy and make new cells, meaning it’s essential for maintaining brain function and boosting energy levels!

Low-fat dairy products

Research shows that low-fat dairy products such as creams and cheese are rich in protein, calcium, potassium, and vitamin A (especially yogurt). They can help you lose weight when eaten in the right amounts.

Plus, low-fat dairy is actually very filling. The creaminess of this food group is enough to satisfy a lot of cravings. So instead of a slice of pizza, grab a cup of yogurt instead – it’s better for you!

Sweet peas

This food is low in calories but high in protein that makes you feel fuller longer. You can eat them whenever you feel hungry to satisfy unwanted cravings.

Sweet peas are a great way to snack, or act as an awesome addition to any meal. Add them as a side dish to a meat-heavy meal – it helps balance things out!

Lean meats

Eating fatty meats is unhealthy and will lead to weight gain, but that doesn’t mean the meat is off the table. Always opt for lean meats like chicken or turkey breast instead of beef or pork chops.

These options are high in protein and low in saturated fat, which can help you feel full for longer periods of time

Bottom-line

If you follow these tips in your daily meals, you’ll be well on your way to reaching your weight loss goals. If you still struggle with losing weight or maintaining a healthy lifestyle, contact a nutritionist to help you.

Getting a more personal touch with your diet through a nutritionist can help you figure out a diet plan that works for you. So if being truly healthy is your goal, see how you can improve your eating habits first!
