Plus, you’ll discover the 10 foods NOT to eat on a weight loss diet.
These are a couple of items on my list of 10 foods NOT to eat if you are following a vegetarian weight loss diet.
The first thing is something that many people like to have in the morning and that is a protein shake. They look very healthy, but what is interesting about these is they have too much sugar per serving. There are usually 2 servings in each bottle, so you are eating way too much sugar. Read the labels for these.
Another product I’ve found is a protein shake with greens. Although I love greens, this shake is loaded with sugar. The greens are great, but I dont like them in this form of a protein drink.
Protein or breakfast bars are next and tend to be loaded with sugars. They need to add binders and extra sugars to them for taste and that translates into more sugar. For example, a Kashi bar does have a good amount of protein, however, the sugar count is higher than the protein count. You need to read the labels on these.
Next is whole wheat bread. All bread is made of wheat, but what you want to watch out for is even if it says its whole wheat, it may be just glorified flour. A great test to see if it is whole wheat is to ball up a slice in your hand. If it holds the ball, that is a great indicator that it is not whole wheat. This doughy ball will turn into sugar very quickly after you eat it. When it turns into sugar in your body, it will turn into fat very quickly as well. You want to pick a whole wheat bread that doesn’t ball up and is actually a little chunky or rough.
Frozen foods are another trap you can fall into. These are great if you are on the go, however, they arent so good because they are very high in sodium and carbs. They sound great, but the carb content is just too high. You can find some that are ok, so be sure to check the protein and sodium levels very closely and balance them out in your diet. You can get away with eating some good ones once in awhile.
One more thing is a Slim Fast breakfast drink. I want to show you this one because the label can be very deceiving. You always want to look beyond the label on the front and look at the list of ingredients on the back first. Interestingly enough, the first ingredient in this protein shake is sugar and then oil. Now, if you are making your own protein drink, would you add sugar and oil to it? Nope! The next ingredient is protein powder, however, in one serving there is only 2 grams of protein. You need to add 8-ounces of milk to get the 10 grams of protein. So, basically, you are drinking a sugar and milk shake. Get rid of it!
A lot of people love to have burritos, wraps or quesadillas. Thats great, but you need to be careful of the tortillas and the flour that is in them. Most tortillas are in the 15-20 grams of refined carbs, so go for a whole wheat brand. I have some healthier options. One is a whole wheat tortilla by the “La Tortilla Factory” and is low-carb and very high in fiber. These are the kind of tortillas you want to find.
Another option for burritos and tacos is using lettuce to add that extra crunch. Simply rinse them off and use them as the wrap. You can use any variety such as butter lettuce or romaine. These will give you fiber and lots of nutrients and energy as well.
Another healthy option is using raw, organic coconut oil. A lot of people use this when they cook or they put it on their toast. I use this in my smoothies and in desserts. Coconut oil actually helps to pull cholesterol out of your body. It also helps to stabilize your blood sugar and your energy. Its also good for your skin and hormones levels and actually helps you to lose weight.
Another option for vegetarians who need some extra protein is sunflower and pumpkin seeds. They are very versatile as you can add them to your salad, your smoothies and I also blend them up and use them as the meat in my burritos. These are easy to digest and they are very high in protein and zinc and have healthy oils for you. Your body is going to love you if you eat these!
These are just a couple of the items that Ive included on my list of 10 foods not to eat.

Counting Calories Doesn't Work.
You won't lose weight long term using most diets either.
Restricting calories is the worst thing that you can do if you want to burn fat.
It will only send your body into starvation mode and shut down the fat burning mechanism.
You may lose weight at first but then hit a plateau and ultimately gain it all back and more.
Plus you'll make it harderer to lose the weight next time.
Find out how to lose the weight for good.
