7 Forbidden Foods For Weight Loss

By: Subodh Gupta To lose weight not only you need to be pretty aware of what you eat, when you eat, how much you eat but also have the understanding about the food you should avoid as much as possible. There are some foods which if you consume them on a daily basis will slow down or even prevent you from losing weight.

Those foods can be included into your diet sparingly, on a day you treat yourself.

1. Caffeine

This is applicable not only for coffee or tea but also to anything that has caffeine in it, like coke or pepsi. Since you need to drink a lot of water in order to lose weight, put a slice of lemon or lime in it. Taste delicious.

Drinking coffee on a daily basis became a habit for most of us and we stopped counting how many coffee cups we had per day. We start the day with a delicious cappuccino or latte from the cafe on our way to work, then drinking it on every break we have, even finishing with the last cup after the dinner. The truth is you have to start controlling this habit. Have the most one cup of coffee per day.

2. Alcohol

This is a big enemy in any weight loss plan. It is alright to drink a glass of wine with your dinner two or three times a week, but not the entire bottle. Moderation is the key with alcoholic beverages. The best way is to have a drink on your treat day only.

3. Pre Packaged Foods

As a big rule, stay away from these products as much as you can. They contain a lot of chemicals and are not going to be good for your diet. To lose weight you must eat your food as fresh as possible and not to rely on those pre packed foods stuffed with loads of saturated fat. In this way your wish to become thinner will fade away.

4. White rice, bread, pastas

Those are the products which you should eat only occasionally, maybe when you are eating out or visiting your family and friends. They contain starches that can inhibit your weight loss. Go for brown rice, whole meal bread and pastas. They taste just as good.

5. Canned and Jar Foods

Anything that is canned or jarred should be avoided as they contain huge amounts of sugar and salt. The best choice is to stick to fresh fruits and vegetables.

6. Meat

The best choice is to go on a vegetarian diet. Use pulses, soya products and green vegetables as a substitute for meat. They have lots of healthy protein and are low in fat.

7. Dairy

If you like milk, the first choice should be skimmed milk over whole milk. Drink milk in moderation. Cheese contains lots of fat so avoid it at all cost. If you however really can not live without it, go for the low fat option and use it sparingly. Eggs may be alright if you use only the whites. You can buy the egg substitute instead when baking or cooking at home.
