Fat-Free Foods List for Weight Loss

Fat-Free Canned Foods.  Canned foods can be good for dieters on a budget. Canned foods generally last longer and can be reheated quickly and conveniently.

If you are watching your sodium intake, check the Nutrition Facts label before you buy. Some fat-free canned foods like beans and soups many contain a lot of salt.

  • White beans
  • Black beans
  • Garbanzo beans
  • Canned tomatoes
  • Canned corn
  • Other canned vegetables
  • Canned fruit with no added syrup
  • Tuna (canned in water, not oil) 
  • Fat-free refried beans
  • Canned soups with a clear base (avoid cream soups)

Fat-Free Dairy Foods.  Not all fat-free dairy products taste good. So it's important to consider flavor when making your choice. Sometimes buying a low-fat version is better because you'll be satisfied eating less of it and consuming fewer calories overall.

  • Fat-free Greek yogurt
  • Fat-free traditional yogurt
  • Fat-free or low-fat cream cheese
  • Skim milk
  • Low-fat cheese like part-skim mozzarella
  • Reduced-fat or fat-free sour cream

Fat-Free Condiments. If you can live without sauces and spreads, you might be able to lose weight faster. Many times condiments add calories without adding too much flavor. But if you prefer to add condiments to your meal, choose these fat-free varieties.

  • Reduced-fat or fat-free salad dressing
  • Light mayo
  • Salsa
  • Butter buds
  • Vinegar
  • Cocktail sauce
  • Reduced-sugar fruit spread or jam
  • Soy sauce
  • Tomato sauce

Low-Fat or Lean Protein. Lean protein should top your list of diet-friendly foods. They contain some fat but provide a powerful nutritional boost.

  • Fresh or frozen fish and seafood
  • Eggs, egg substitute, or egg whites
  • Almonds

Fat-free Treats.  In a perfect world, dieters wouldn't need treats. But we all need a sweet treat now and then. These are the best diet-friendly choices. Some contain a little bit of fat, but many are fat-free.

  • Hard candies
  • Gum
  • Tootsie Rolls
  • Lollipops
  • Fat-free Jello cups
  • Low-fat granola bars
  • Low-fat ice cream bars 
  • Push-Ups
  • Sorbet
  • Sherbet
  • Fudgesicles

Fat-Free Bread and Grain Products. Choose high-fiber breads and grains, even if they provide a little fat. But try to keep your choices low in calories.

  • Whole-grain, reduced-sugar, and bran cereals 
  • Whole-grain bread
  • Brown rice
  • Whole-wheat pita
  • Oatmeal (avoid high-sugar packets)
  • Whole-grain pasta

The Mediterranean diet is based on the traditional foods eaten by people living in the Mediterranean region, especially Greece. It's loaded with healthy foods and research findings suggest following this diet may help reduce some of the risk factors for heart disease.  According to the Oldways Preservation & Exchange Trust, the Mediterranean diet was introduced in 1993 by Oldways, Harvard School of Public Health and the World Health Organization.  The diet includes: Olives and olive oil Whole grains, mostly in bread and cereal rather than pasta Very little red meat Fish and seafood Some cheese, but less milk Lots of vegetables and fruit Plenty of legumes and nuts A little red wine The Mediterranean diet is high in fiber and antioxidants from vegetables, legumes and nuts, far greater than the typical Western diet, and low in saturated fat.

Changing Your Life To Lose Weight

I can let you in on the ultimate secret for successfully making a change in your life. A century’s worth of psychological research reveals an interesting paradox in who we are. On the one hand, once we reach adulthood our basic personalities remain unchanged for the rest of our lives. We keep doing the same things—and feeling the same ways—over and over. But, on the other hand, every day we change our behavior drastically in response to different environments. Most of us are one person at work, for example, and another person at home. It is easier to change our environment than to change ourselves. So, if you want to change yourself, change your environment. Said differently: Whenever possible, don’t try to fight temptations – avoid them! The easiest way to make a change in your life is to modify the world around you in ways that will naturally drive you toward making, and maintaining, the change you want. There are many ways to change your environment, but let’s focus

Cancer and High Protein Diets

-
On the Fox TV Network the other night, one of the big stories was about high protein diets. A new study has shown a link between the over consumption of animal protein and how it can stimulate the growth of cancer cells. It seems we all have cancer cells but they don’t normally grow, unless we consume too much animal fat, dairy or fats from processed foods. Before I continue I want to explain about the link to cancer. After all, Man has been eating red meat for millions of years, right. That's true but todays red meat is not the same. Most red meat that we buy in the supermarket comes from Steers that have been raised in feed lots on a grain diet that is full of hormones and other chemicals that shorten the growing time and put more fat on the animal. These hormones and other chemicals stay in the meat and what you're buying will contain the chemicals that the animal ate. Normally a grass feed Steer that lives on the range in big herds will take 18 to 20 months to grow to
