    But how do these foods help you lose weight fast? There's nothing special or magical about any one of these, and all of them, if eaten in excess, will cause weight gain... (just like any other food)

    While those foods are generally healthy, they will only help you lose weight if you are restricting the number of calories you consume at the same time. I could totally gain weight on just those foods.

    Im no expert..but the list looks very close to what I read to eat in a Clean Eating book. The book stated that you didn't even need to count calories if you cut all processed foods and sugars from your diet and stuck to the list-there is a formula of what percentages of each to eat in a meal and how many meals to eat a day. Supposedly your body doesn't have to work to process these foods like it does 'dirty' foods, so it doesn't hold on to them the same and your body is working as it is meant to-Although as with anything else...moderation is key-As much as I would like to believe that and I am trying really hard to follow it-I am still counting my calories-because I don't trust myself if I don't honestly-lol.

    There are no foods that magically help you lose weight fast.

    It's how much you eat of those foods, and in what macronutrient combinations, and to what maximum daily caloric intake, that counts.

    I believe you have to rub that coffee in a clockwise motion on the exterior of the offending area though, don't you?
