    As with any type of food look at the nutrient mix of the food you are eating, make sure they are hitting the requirements you need. If you are eating loads of fruit and veg you will have to plan well to hit protein requirements. Here are some suggestions

    Calories out - calories in = weight loss.

    If you have a suitable nutrient mix in your diet weight loss will be predominantly fat assuming you are overweight.

    As some people have said there is a massive difference in calorie intake for vegetables. Here is an example.

    Calories in 100g

    Spinach - 22
    Broccoli - 31
    Garden Peas - 74
    Avocado - 190
    Potatoes - 75
