Whats NOT Included In A Low Calorie Diet Plan

     You always eat about people who lose weight while eating whatever they want. For most, though, that just doesn't happen.

A low calorie diet plan is just that -- low calorie. Foods you previously enjoyed should be eliminated from your kitchen. Yeah, it's a bummer, but what do you want more: High-fat foods or a great body?

Now is the time to change things up and start a low calorie diet plan. Hopefully you know to include lean protein such as chicken and fish, green fibrous vegetables and whole grains. There's also a list of foods to avoid, which is just as important, and it includes:

1) Margarine: This "food" shouldn't really be considered a food. It's fattening and has 100 calories in just one tablespoon.

Not only that, but it's rich in trans fat, which is just about the worst substance to consume. Skip this substance while on your low calorie diet plan.

2) French Fries: This dining-out staple comes fully equipped with saturated fat, trans fat and incredibly amounts of salt.

Instead of French fries, simply ask for an alternative. (But don't take that as an excuse to eat mozzarella sticks instead.)

3) Processed cheese: It might look (kind of) like cheese, it might have the word "cheese" on the package, but it's just not cheese. Suppliers have to label it as "cheese food," "cheese spread" or "cheese product."

Keep natural, nonfat cheese in your fridge and leave the Kraft singles at the store.

4) Whole milk: There is a staggering difference between skim milk's calories and fat gram and whole milk's.

Milk should be included in a healthy diet, but avoid whole milk. One percent is OK in small amounts.

But ONE slice from a popular pizza joint can have up to 400 calories and a half-day's worth of saturated fats.
Considering that most people eat three or four slices at a time, this can throw your program way off track.

6) Alcohol: Some people eat well all week, then go out on Friday night and pound six or seven beers. After all of that, you're probably drinking 600-900 calories. Half a day's calories, used on beer.

There's no nutritional value to alcohol, and it can cause someone to eat worse later in the night. Midnight slice of pizza, anyone? The low calorie diet plan you're on doesn't need that trap.

7) Soda: This is our country's weakness. The average American ingests nearly 56 gallons of soda per year.

One can of Coke has 153 calories and 40 grams of carbs, and that all adds up. It's not a great choice, but make it diet if you have to drink soda.

8) Peanut butter: Peanut butter itself isn't a problem. It's regular commercial peanut butter, with its high-fructose corn syrup and hydrogenated oils, that should be avoided.

Peanut butter only needs to have one ingredient: peanuts. It doesn't need sugar, corn syrup or even extra salt. Read the labels on all-natural peanut butter and find one with only one ingredient.

It's the way to go for your low calorie diet plan.
