answer:Eating fresh fruit and veg is the best way to lose weight. Don’t eat anything processed. Cook everything from scratch. I’ve been eating a lot more fresh food for about 18 months now, and if I eat something that’s very high in processed sugar, I feel odd after. I eat very little processed food anymore. Here’s what I eat: fresh fruit dried fruit (without added sugar) fresh veg nuts fresh salsa from the grocer’s refrigerated section (not the stuff in jars on the shelf) cheese meat (mostly turkey) low fat milk high quality whole grain bread butter (I’m very happy that the place where I shop now has Kerrygold.) When I want something sweet, I indulge in ice cream a few times each month. Most of the time, a piece of fruit will satisfy the craving. I do have a high quality chocolate bar in the fridge, and I’ll break a square off about once a week. Eating well can be quite fun actually. I forgot to mention that I buy healthy veg-based crisps for snacks. A few potato chips occasionally is not a bad thing, but I don’t keep them on hand.
