3. Green Tea
Although this is a beverage and not food, the effect that green tea has on your body is enormous. The antioxidants that green tea is rich in keep you strong and healthy. This drink speeds up all metabolic processes and makes weight loss much easier. The variety of green tea allows you to choose something interesting and unusual every day. You may try and add various spices or fruits to make it taste and smell different.
4. Quinoa
Do not blame carbohydrates for your weight. Carbs are evil only if they come from the wrong type of products. There are plenty of foods that are high in carbohydrates but they are beneficial and can help you lose weight rather than gain it. Pay attention to the glycemic index of products rather than their nutritional value and calories. Opt for carbs that would take you longer to digest. Try, for example, quinoa.
