3 Weight Loss Diet Foods

by Ed Scow (aka The Fit Dad) - Certified Fitness Professional and Fat Loss Expert for Busy Moms and Dads

There’s a lot of misinformation, lies and myths out there about what a good weight loss diet food is.

The marketers and grocery stores will tell you that a good weight loss diet food comes in an individual package and that it’s some sort of candy bar looking thing that either tastes horrible, or it tastes like a candy bar.

The truth is those things are usually just as bad for you as a candy bar is, no matter what the marketing or spokesperson says.

A true weight loss diet food has to have a few common traits.

It must be as close to "real" as possible. It should not be some overly-processed food product that looks like a candy bar and tastes like cardboard.

It should be as close to natural as possible.

Second, it should be high in fiber, protein and vitamins and minerals. Your body needs these things and if you want to lose weight, you must pay attention to them.

Having said that, here are a few of my favorite weight loss diet foods.

Almonds – Almonds are an excellent weight loss diet food because they’re high in protein, fiber and healthy fats. They’re also very portable, which makes them an excellent on-the-go snack.

Apples – Just like almonds, apples are also loaded with fiber and vitamins and phytonutrients, plus they’re easy to take anywhere.

Not only that, but they’re also low in calories. I know you may have heard that fruit isn’t something you should eat if you’re on a weight loss diet, but that’s a terrible lie.

Broccoli – Broccoli is another awesome weight loss diet food because it’s loaded with fiber. Fiber helps you feel full, which means you won’t be able to eat as much at one time.

It’s also loaded with phytonutrients, vitamins and minerals, which will help keep your immune system healthy and strong.

Did you happen to notice anything about those 3 weight loss diet foods?

For one thing, they’re all loaded with fiber, vitamins, phytonutrients and minerals. All things that the body needs, regardless of whether you want to lose weight or just be healthy.

Another very important factor with those 3 weight loss foods is that they’re all portable. Meaning you can take them with you pretty much anywhere without making a mess or worrying about them getting spoiled.

That’s something that’s very important to consider with a weight loss diet food. There are going to be many times when you can’t take the time to prepare a good meal. You’ve got too many things going on in your life and it’s ridiculous to think that you’ll always be able to be home for a meal.

However, if you plan ahead and pack some fat burning foods like those 3 listed above, you won’t sabotage your weight loss diet and will stick to your goals.
