What to eat when you are dieting for weight loss?

Dieting for weight loss

Dieting is simple, eat portion-sized food that you like and enjoy, and lose weight. People think you have to eat like a bodybuilder to lose weight. Unless your goal is to get on stage and be 3-5% body fat, yes you will have a very strict diet, but if not then you have to follow a personalized diet based on your likes and nutritional needs.

You can have foods you like and still lose body fat, gain lean mass, and have energy for the day without feeling sluggish.

Dieting for Joint Inflammation

If you have joint issues, try adding some fatty oils to your diet. Be careful not to add too much fat to your diet.  You should swap out unhealthy oils for oils that come from fish like salmon or sardines.

For those of you who have more of a sweet tooth, reach out for fruits!  There are several fruits that can help reduce inflammation and can handle your sweet tooth. You can try grapes or berries.

Adding some broccoli and spinach to your meals is going to help you too.  Remember that just adding these foods won't do the trick. You also have to remove food from your diet that is causing inflammation.  Dieting isn't about cutting out everything you like to eat, it's about balancing your meals.

Also, remember to be mindful of your portions. Even too much of a good thing can be a bad thing.  Try not to think of this as dieting but as using food to help your body and mind feel better.
