How To Lose Weight - Step by Step - Free Diet Menus From Thin Thin
Food Within the Food Pyramid Food Groups Low in Calories
Grain Group: Look for bread that is whole grain and contains no more than 70 calories per slice. Rainbow makes a delicious white bread that is a skinny 110 calories per two slices.
Nabisco also makes a delicious mini-saltine cracker that's out of this world for a tiny 70 calories per serving.
Protein Group: When it comes to lower calories, think outside of the Diet Box. Protein usually strums up visions of meat but foods that are sources of vegetable protein are a healthier option.
Some of these Protein Stars include: peanut butter, beans, nuts, eggs and seeds - such as healthy sunflower seeds. For a low calorie snack, try the Nabisco crackers mentioned above and use Peter Pan's whipped peanut butter which contains a skinny 140 calories per serving compared to about 200 calories for full-blown peanut butter.
Vegetable Group - This wonderful food group is naturally low in calories - so dig in without guilt except where these foods are concerned as they contain calories that you'll want to monitor: potatoes, sweet potatoes, yams, pumpkin, corn, peas.
Fruit Group - This wonderful food group is also naturally low in calories. To compare calories in fruit, you'll find a spiffy calorie comparison chart at Diet Bites which pits fruit against fruit. Simply click here.
Dairy Group - Opting for skim dairy products not only equals less calories, but more calcium. To compare a couple of dairy products, Whole Milk contains 160 calories while Skim Milk contains 1/2 that amount - about 80 calories.
