Foods That You Should Avoid While You Are Trying To Lose Weight

When you start your weight loss journey, you must have a specific diet plan in your mind about what to eat, when to eat and how to eat. These specific diet plans sometimes turn out to be quite rigid and so suppressive at times that most people give up on the weight loss program.

As a registered Nutrition Coach in Los Angeles, I have come up with a different approach to the idea of maintaining a diet and I always advice my clients with the same. The idea of trying to eat the specific foods on a diet plan can be quite tough; but the idea of avoiding a few foods during your weight loss journey can actually be pretty easy. Keeping this idea in mind, I have made a list of foods that you should avoid while you are on your weight loss program. Check this out below –

Snack bars that are high in fiber – Now this might surprise you. Although, fibers are quite important and good for your health, it is very important that you should avoid eating high fibers snack bars. They contain a lot and lot of fibers and such a huge amount of fibers can be harmful for your body.

Whole Milk – Drinking whole milk during your weight loss program can be a very bad decision to make. Whole milk contains bad cholesterol and a lot of fats which you definitely should avoid adding on your diet plan.

Fruit juice – Everyone loves a glass of fruit juice just out of the cartoon as a part of the breakfast. But this glass of fruit juice is giving you nothing but just some empty calories. So instead of going for juice, try to eat one fruit which will give you fibers and some other nutrients too.

Alcohol—Alcohol contains a lot of calories. Even if you are an average alcoholic you consume up to 2000 extra calories in a day. Also, your body cannot burn your fats and calories until and unless alcohol is out of your system. Besides alcohol have many other side effects too. Therefore avoid alcohol in your weight loss journey completely.

The foods where the label says “low fat foods” – If the label says its low fat that means the manufacturer has replaced the natural ingredients with some chemicals so that the food becomes low fat. These chemicals are harmful to your body and this is why you should stay away from low fat foods.
