Losing weight is not as difficult as it is keeping the weight off (you probably know that). But keeping the weight off is not as big of a mystery as you might think. You really don’t have to resort to some crazy diet plan like eating only rice or grapefruit, you do (however) have to change what you are doing. Remember the definition of crazy is trying the same thing over and over but expecting new results. In order to lose weight you have to change what you are doing.
There have been a lot of recent diet books that include a vegan diet plan (and for good reason). If you are like most people, you have been on a weight roller coaster for as long as you can remember. Sometimes your weight goes up and sometimes your weight goes down, but (just like being on a roller coaster) you are really not in that much control.

Low glycemic foods are the best foods to eat if you are trying to control your blood sugar, but it also works well to eat low glycemic foods if your goal is weight loss. But just what are low glycemic foods?

The million dollar question, though, is what are humans supposed to eat?
People have been asking me for a list of weight loss foods. These foods (all fruits and vegetables) are especially good at helping you to feel full and are low in calories. When you are looking for foods to help you with weight loss, these are the foods that you want to turn to. The key here is to eat as many of the green leafy vegetables as you can and then add in any other vegetables that you enjoy. When it comes to fruits, you want to focus on the low sugar fruits for weight loss.
Why is it that everything that tastes good bad for you? I’ve pondered this question a lot. My kids suggest that “they” should make broccoli taste good if they want people to eat it. And while I’m sure there is at least one scientist out there trying to make broccoli taste like cotton candy, I think that understanding how our taste buds work and what we can do to manipulate our tastes will go much farther to getting good foods on our plates than any genetically altered broccoli. There are two reasons why foods that are good for you don't also...
