Grilled or baked lean meats. Grilled or poached fish or seafood. Just about any vegetable or fruit. Stay away from simple or processed carbs and high sugar items. Frozen “diet” dinners are okay, but low in veggies, so add a side veggie or a salad.

I love Kashi brand foods and they are really healthy for you. They make cerial, oatmeal, frozen dinners, protien bars, granola bars, and crakers. They are high in protien and fiber. Also, great low calorie snacks are fice cakes, and those 100 calorie pack things. If you purchase any prepackaged foods make sure they do not have any hydronated oils, or high frutose corn syrup. A product can say no trans fat and still have trans fat in it ( that is what hydronated oils are). 3500 calories equal 1 pound.

Alright, here are some healthy fat burning foods you should try:
Citrus Foods are a safe bet. Things like oranges, grapefruit, tangerines, lemons, and limes has tons of Vitamin C, which has a fat burning quality by reducing it’s contents or diluting and liquefying fat. Try it in every meal and snack!
For example, pink grapefruit only has 40 calories for a half serving! Eat it as it is for breakfast, or toss it into a salad with spinach! Spinach, by the way, is powerful! with only 13 calories for two cups of chopped raw spinach, this fat-burning vegeatable can be eaten raw in salads, steamed as a side dish, or sauteed in a bit of olive oil!
Oh wait! Olive oil is also useful in diet foods! Even though a tablespoon is 125 calories, but drizzled on a 13 calorie spinach salad with a little lemon juice and some garlic, and you have a healthy meal with less than 150 calories!
Whole grain breads, a biggie! If you’re on a 1500 calorie day diet, than about 900 calories should come from grains, fruits, and veggies! Replace those white bread slices with half a cup of oatmeal or whole grain cereal, and you’ll feel fuller too!
Fish!!! Eat at least three servings of fish per week! Because it has omega 3, it will try to build cells from other fatty acids! yay! So you are replacing your portions of meat with fish, not adding them to what you already eat!
Soybeans contain a lot of lecithin, which prevents fat from forming on your cells, and breaks down fatty deposits in your body! Eat it at least three times a week and you’ll be thin in no time!
Apples, Berries, and Fresh Fruit is awesome! Apples contain a lot pectin (as well as most berries and fresh fruit), which helps release fat deposits accumulated in cells. Add applesauce, apples, fresh fruit and berries to your diet every day!
Okay, I know it sounds a little gross but Garlic Oil can help. The juice of garlic has a significant protective quality to cells which help reduce fatty deposits. Anything with garlic helps brings down the levels of fat (as well as keep those vampires away!)
I hope I helped! Good Luck!
